None of the competitors in the Preis Performance Sales International GmbH could catch up with Cassio Rivetti in Hagen on Friday. The Ukrainian rider fittingly rode a P.S.I. horse to victory in this 1.50 competition; the ten year old Chacco-Blue-daughter Chataga. After his win a happy Cassio commented; “Chataga is in top form and recently comes from Lummen with two straight 1.50 wins“.
Behind the sympathetic Ukrainian rider followed Santiago Lambre on Rahmannshof Before (Tenerife VDL x Matterhorn), only 0.18 second behind on the time in the jump-off. Third place went to the veteran John Whitaker on the Arko III-son Argento 11 who was 0.26 behind on the winning time.
