Martin Fuchs (31) from Zurich defeated Canadian Tiffany Foster with Figor after two clear rounds in the play-off. Fuchs was one second faster in the decisive stage and came through clear for the third time. Third place went to the Irishman Bertram Allen with Pacino Amiro.

Fuchs had to overcome a delicate situation at his first meeting. He lost his left rein and stirrup after a jump, but got everything back under control in time. Guerdat, who saddled Venard and not his European Championship gold horse Dynamix, narrowly missed the second round of the top 12 in 14th place with five penalties.

Calgary, whose Grand Prix is ​​worth the equivalent of almost two million Swiss francs, forms the Grand Slam series in show jumping together with Aachen, Geneva and ‘s-Hertogenbosch. If Fuchs wins again in Geneva in December, he will receive a bonus of 500,000 euros in addition to the prize money. (SDA)
