Last weekend at Wellington International was already into the ninth week of the prestigious Winter Equestrian Festival, where the focus was mainly on the five-star competition. But in addition to the CSI5* competition, there was also a two-star competition on the programme and at the CSI2* Grand Prix on Saturday afternoon, it was a Z-horse that took victory.That honour went to US rider Jacqueline Ruyle and the 14-year-old grey mare Cyramo Z, a daughter of Clarimo ASK and Vigo d’Arsouilles bred in the Netherlands by the van Helmond brothers. Ruyle and Cyramo Z also finished ^4th in a CSI2* Grand Prix in Wellington earlier this month and were one of 13 combinations to qualify for the jump-off on Saturday. In it, they once again managed to ensure a flawless round and with a whirlwind finishing time of 35.21 seconds, they were just under two full seconds ahead of the competition.Jacqueline Ruyle: “I loved the jump-off! I thought it was perfect for her because I don’t have the biggest gallop, but there were a lot of distances that were unrelated. So I knew that if I didn’t screw up, I could definitely win this Grand Prix. She has so much heart and we have such a good relationship. I think we both respect each other and fight for each other.”
