His pirouettes were good today.” She additionally felt they had “a little mistake in the flying changes because I was riding a bit behind the music. But I’m very proud of my horse.” 

Isabell Werth, who finished second just 0.325 points behind the winner, was nevertheless very satisfied with her horse, “Jonny was super. It was a challenge to compete against Beatriz.” Dietrich Plewa, the judge at C, added, “The result could have gone both ways as there was little between the two.” 

“I was a bit uncertain as I showed a new freestyle today – but I had a good feeling,” said a satisfied Jessica von Bredow-Werndl, “it was a good ride but not my best.”
