Top positions amongst the world’s show jumping elite

The cream of show jumping’s international scene met at the FEI World Cup in Verona, and for GLOCK rider Dieter Köfler it was no holds barred over the weekend. The Carinthian rider started with three horses, performed extremely well against a select field of competitors and, after only two days, was able to celebrate three top placings.

Riding GLOCK’s Prince de Vaux, Köfler achieved a masterful clear round on Friday in the Prix PRESTIGE, a CSI5* competition against the clock over 1.45 m, to come in 11th place amongst the show jumping world’s big names.The 11-year old offspring of Flipper D’Elle was also in peak condition during the FEI World Cup presented by FIXDESIGN on Saturday, a CSI5* competition against the clock over 1.50 m, where he came in tenth.

This was followed on Saturday by GLOCK’s Zyrano who reached fifth place in the Prix BMW, a CSI5* world rankings competition against the clock, to make it a perfect triplet of top rankings.
