After a Swede was able to win the Championat of Mannheim on Sunday, yesterday's Prize of the City of Mannheim remained in German hands. A man from the homeland, Richard Vogel stood today in front.
The 23 year old lives in Marburg, works at the Dagobertshausen estate, but continues to compete for the RV Mannheim.
After he could already win a Youngster Tour jumping, he stood today with the gelding "Never Walk Alone" in front.
"Slowly the victories and good placings here in the MVV Riding Stadium are getting scary - but I can stand it quite well!", Vogel commented on his winning streak.
In this world ranking jumping competition, the rider from Baden Württemberg was able to prevail against 37 other competitors. The jumping was endowed with 40,000€.
Despite that the height was advertised "only" with 150cm, the course was built by Christa Jung with 12 obstacles and 15 jumps fair but still challenging.
Second place, behind Vogel, was taken by the absolute stylist of German show jumping, Marcus Ehning with his faithful partner "Misanto Pret a Tout".
For his victory Vogel received a whole 10,000€.
