On 30th Dec. 2012 the Swedish rider Henrik von Eckermann
made it to the first place and won the important competition from the Rolex FEI
World Cup™ Jumping series. It took place at Mechelen in Belgium and it’s the
eight part of the Western European League. Besides him as a winner the men from
Sweden also had another reason to celebrate because the third place was taken
by their presenter-the rider Jens Fredricson who si 31-year-old. The
competition started with 40 horses but only nine could make it to the jump off
where they had to compete with the watch and find the best path to get over the
higher obstacles. In the second round jump off von Eckermann clearly showed
that he possessed better qualities and concentration together with his mare
Gotha FRH. He led her carefully and fast enough to ensure his win in the jump
off which requires balance, speed and turning skills. He also declared his
desire to continue riding the 11-year-old horse which was earlier under the
coaching of the German legend-Ludger Beerbaum.
