GLOCK’s CSI2* Tour victory for Alessandra Reich!

The second day of GLOCK’s International Show Jumping at the GLOCK HORSE PERFORMANCE CENTER opened with a scorching victory for Austria. Eighteen-year-old Alessandra Reich (OÖ) had already participated in four youngster European Championships and underlined her talent in the saddle of her 14-year-old KWPN gelding U Mijnheer in the GLOCK’s CSI2* Tour over 1.40 m. With a time advantage of over two seconds (0/68.59) she secured victory and thus one of the wonderful GLOCK’s winner’s trophies and winner’s blankets. "The whole event is incredible and it’s a dream to have the chance to ride here. I also have my second horse here for the start of the other CSI2* Tour, so let’s see what we can do there" said the ambitious rider.

Also riding a clear round were Jack Dodd (IRL) and the just seven-year-old Izzy By Picobello, progeny of Cicero, taking second place in 70.72 seconds ahead of Salzburg’s Jürgen Krackow, who used a 'Bosal' bitless bridle to pilot Webster, progeny of Hors La Loi II, to an equally clear round of the GLOCK’s CSI2* Tour in 70.84 seconds.
