First international show jumping class for the weekend ended with Finnish celebration when both Sanna Backlund and Miisa Pulkkanen placed in the top four. Backlund and Zorro H did an amazing round and took the win in the International Helsinki Welcome 140cm presented by Stopteltat with a clear difference to the second placed Michael Cristofoletti and Sig Debalia from Italy.
Beforehand I thought that I wouldn’t try to be quite this fast because I’m riding again later today but I managed to do that one turn really well and the horse was also great. Many international riders take this class as a practise so my time was good enough, commented Backlund on her performance.
