After three weeks of great sport, the second part of the Autumn MET 2022 in Oliva Nova, Spain, came to an end on Sunday with the CSI3* 1.50m Grand Prix presented by Oliva Nova Beach & Golf Resort.<\/p>\n

With 50 horse-and-rider-combinations at start, only six pairs cleared the first-round track set by the German course designer Peter Schumacher. As the first man out in the jump-off, Switzerland\u2019s Niklaus Schurtenberger and the 11-year-old Lireu (Legolas x Landgraf I) set the time to beat to 44.54 seconds \u2013 only to be matched by Germany\u2019s Philip Houston and the 12-year-old Sandros S Bella (Sandro Boy x Chacco-Blue), who crossed the finish line in the exact same time.<\/p>\n

While Belgium\u2019s Jerome Guery and Great Britain V (Nabab de Reve x Carolus H), the last pair out in the jump-off, clocked the quickest time of the class \u2013 42.12 seconds \u2013 they had to settle for the third place when a pole fell. Schurtenberger and Houston shared the win ahead of Guery in third, while Jason Foley (IRL) and Rockwell RC (Kannan x Guidam) finished fourth and Maartje Verberckmoes (BEL) aboard Guidam\u2019s Willow The Second (Willow x Indoctro) fifth.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy plan was to go fast, but not risk too much,\u201d Schurtenberger commented afterwards about his jump-off, that only Houston could match. \u201cAnd I think it was a good plan! I have had Lireu since he was five, and this is for sure the biggest win I have had with him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Schurtenberger is a regular at the Mediterranean Equestrian Tour. \u201cWe have been coming here since the very beginning,\u201d he said about the venue in Oliva. \u201cWe love coming here \u2013 it is good for both the younger and the older horses. Coming to Oliva always feels like coming home.\u201d<\/p>\n
