With three horses in the top ten going into show jumping, it’s not a big surprise that William Fox-Pitt ended up the winner. William and Oslo finished on their dressage score of 44.20. Mr. Cruise Control and Andrew Nicholson were second, followed by William again in third on Lionheart.
Despite WFP’s overall win (and placing third!) Mary King still walked away with the HSBC Classic Series prize. She finished fourth on Imperial Cavalier, moving up from 10th with a clear round. Overnight leader Christopher Burton had three rails down, dropping him to 8th.
