Gregory Wathelet (BEL) took a popular win in the beautiful summer-weather in Drammen after a very efficient jump-off. Riding Quasi Modo Z (Querlybet Hero x Quidam de Revel) Wathelet was 2,58 seconds faster than runner-up Jur Vrieling (NED) and the VDL-stallion VDL-Arezzo (Chin Chin x Heartbreaker). Third place went to Douglas Duffin (GBR) and Quidam B Z (Quasimodo Z x G. Ramiro Z).
The 1.55 class counted 43 riders and 10 riders qualified for the jump-off. Unfortunately, the home crowd did not get to see any of their riders taking part in the second round, but the younger riders Johan-Sebastian Gulliksen, Solveig Newermann and Marie Longem all delivered very good rounds on four faults.
