Ludger Beerbaum repeated his win from the DKB-Riders Tour qualification on Saturday and took home the DKB-Riders Tour Grand Prix Sunday with Chaman (Baloubet du Rouet x I Love You). Five horse and rider combinations left the fences intact over both rounds and second place went to Christian Ahlmann and his relatively new ride Colorit (Coriano x Capitol I). Wout-Jan van der Schans ended third with Capetown (Oklund x Carlino) followed by Katrin Eckermann with Lugano (Orlando x Drosselklang II) and Nicole Persson with Lexington (Andiamo Z x Dageraad) as number four and five respectively.
Beerbaum won a BMW cabriolet worth 38 250 Euro and was very pleased with his weekend. "Ludger was not to beat, that I realized - so I'm really happy with my second place" Ahlmann said after the class.
