German eventer Falk-Filip-Finn Westerich gave quite the masterclass in tenacity at last week’s Stuttgart German Masters Indoor Derby. When he ended up with both legs on one side of Giaccomo YSK after a tough jump, the situation seemed dire. He somehow managed to recover but ended up pulling his saddle halfway off to the side in the process. Undeterred, he set off to finish his course … and finish he did, placing 20th in the class.
The Derby was won by Nicolas Wettstein, who rides for Ecuador, and his 14-year-old Selle Francais gelding Onzieme Framoni. The pair narrowly edged out local hero Michael Jung and fischerRocana FST by a scant 34 hundredths of a second. Victory has eluded Michael in this class in his eight attempts at it — every Superman has his Kryptonite, I suppose! Rounding out the top three was Ingrid Klimke and her Trakehner gelding Parmenides.
