Rolf-Göran Bengtsson with Carusso LS La Silla(Portofino) won the Grand Prix in Redefin and was almost five seconds faster than the runner-up in the jump-off!
Ten riders made it to the jump-off and there it was the line to the combination that was the big question. The first riders went inside the second jump to the combination, but then got faults at one or two of the elements in the combination. The riders in the middle part of the class changed their plan and went outside the jump to get a better line, and two of the riders then cleared the course - Angel Dinev Nyagolov with Donkosack (Drosselklang) and Andreas Ripke with Edelgaard's Saqini (Quantum).
Second last to go in the jump-off was Andreas Kreutzer with Chintan (Cento) and he did the short turn and was clear! Even though he wasn´t that speedy around the rest of the course, Andreas took over the lead until the last rider Rolf-Göran Bengtsson with Carusso LS La Silla entered the course. Rolf also managed to clear the combination with the short turn and crushed the time from Kreutzer - Rolf was almost five seconds faster!
