Jung shines at the World Cup in Leipzig – Roth impresses in pony jumping!
The last days of PARTNER PFERD in Leipzig were characterized by extremely exciting competitions and spectacular performances. The focus was particularly on the World Cup jumping on Sunday afternoon, which brought with it a lot of thrills. Michael Jung was able to achieve a solid sixth place with his horse Fischerheros Z, once again underlining his class in show jumping. The frontrunner of the competition was none other than the Swiss show jumper Steve Guerdat, who shone with his horse Albleiten’s Iashin.
Guerdat put in an impressive performance by staying clean and leaving the competition behind with a lightning fast time of 42.21 seconds in the jump-off. The Frenchman Simon Delestre came in second with Gatsby du Tillard, followed by Gerrit Nieberg, who took third place with Ping Pong van de Lentamel. In the qualifying competition on Friday, Jung was able to take second place with Fischerheros Z. Despite a drop in the jump-off, where he completed the fastest four-fault ride, he made it to the final.
Successes for Jung and his colleagues
Stable colleague Eclaire Z excelled in a top-class 5* show jumping competition on Friday and secured victory. However, in the championship of the city of Leipzig she had a drop. Michael Jung and Eclaire Z were able to achieve sixth place in the PARTNER PFERD Speed Cup, which earned further valuable points for the overall ranking. In the same breath, Marvin Jüngel won both the Speed Cup and the Youngster Tour for seven-year-olds, which earned him additional recognition.
Another highlight were the performances by Luisa Sophie Roth and her sister Jana Roth. The two ride in the Area9 Lyceum Pony Trophy and shone in it. Jana Roth showed a great performance with her pony Bumble Bruni and achieved fourth place in the 1.20 meter course. The young talents also contribute to the attractiveness of the event, and it will be exciting to see how their careers develop further.
