Friday’s main event, the $25,000 International Jumper Puissance was won by 19 year old Belgian rider Jos Verlooy who cleared a wall only an inch short of 7 feet with his top mount, Sunshine. Harrie Smolders of the Netherlands and his horse Emerald were victorious in Saturday’s $125,000 President’s Cup – World Cup feature event.
