With a time of 43.92 seconds in the second round against the clock, Skrzyczyński took home the top prize of 48,200 PLN. His compatriot Wojciech Wojcianiec on the 9-year-old stallion Naccord Melloni (Nabab de Reve x Acord II) took the second place in a time of 44.26, while third place went to Marcin Bętkowski on the 11-year-old gelding Casper XXI (Unitair x Orion Fortuna) – also representing Poland.

The last double clear belonged to Estonia's Urmas Raag on Ibelle van de Grote Haart (Verdi x Robin des Bruyeres), finishing fourth, while Netherland's Angelique Hoorn and Brego R'n B (Namelus R x Gerlinus) ended fifth with four faults in the second round against the clock.
