AMSTERDAM, Jan. 27, 2023–Dutch star partnership of Dinja van Liere and Hermès posted a personal best score to win the World Cup Grand Prix Friday, beating Germany’s Isabell Werth on Emilio.

Dinja and the 11-year-old KWPN stallion scored 79.739% for the win. If they can repeat the performance in the Grand Prix Freestyle before a home crowd Saturday it could the rider a ticket to the world championship final in Omaha in two months.

Isabell and Emilio, 17-year-old Westfalen gelding, were runners-up on 77.957% as the most successful equestrian rider in history seeks her 23rd start at a World Cup Final over the past three decades.

Fellow German Ingrid Klimke and the 15-year-old stallion Franziskus also logged a personal best 76.261% for third place.

With Jessica von Bredow Werndl and TSF Dalera BB already qualified to defend her title, only another two German riders can earn a start in Omaha where Isabell won the inaugural competition on Weiehegold OLD in 2017.

Saturday’s Freestyle to decide points will be streamed live on ClipMyHorse.tv.
