A big hug for the amazing DSP Alice, double clear with Simone Blum for Team Germany.

Pure happiness on the Swedish team.

Full house!

Akuna Mattata did not find the big stadium in Aachen to be to her liking. With Nicole Shahinian-Simpson being unable to get on when the mare finally entered the ring, with her rider next to her by foot, the bell was rung and the pair was eliminated.

Maikel van der Vleuten and Dana Blue delivered a clear round as pathfinders in the Nations Cup for the Netherlands.

Aachen is Aachen...

Thumbs up from Germany's Daniel Deusser, who only recorded a time penalty over the two rounds with Calisto Blue.

Gregory Wathelet and Iron Man van de Padenborre were clear in the first round for Belgium.

They are a relatively new combination, but have already formed a great partnership: McLain Ward and Noche de Ronda delivered one of two double clear rounds for Team USA.

Hugs for Quel Homme de Hus, clear with Jerome Guery in round two for Belgium.

Happiness on the German team!

Full focus on Henrik von Eckermann, double clear for Sweden.

Celebrations for the winners!
