Kannan) as the last of the twelve riders who qualified for the final round for the overall prize money of more than 300,000 euros. She was then again the fastest, this time with 45.68 seconds in the shortened course. But the last hurdle fell exactly at the wrong time, and so instead of the victory the seventh place was awarded. The Brit Jessica Mendoza, who came from the course with In the Air (v. Air Jordan) as the fourth fastest, was the fastest double-nil rider with 46.94 seconds and secured the victory ahead of Rodrigo Pessoa on Major Tom (v. Vagabond de la Pomme) and Cian O\u2019Connor on Kentucky TN (v. Verdi TN).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Due to her unfortunate finish, Sophie Hinners was not the best German in this CSIO5* over 1.60m either. Because Kendra Claricia Brinkop came in second in both rounds with Replay van \u201at Paradijs (v. Bamako de Muze) under the eyes of her boss and horse owner Stephan Conter without any mistakes. In the jumping round, six hundredths were missing from the zero mark; in the winning round, one more time error was added to that one. That meant sixth place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">World ranking first Richard Vogel had to settle for eighth place behind the two Amazons. An eleven-year-old Liverpool ox named Sprung was hampered by a broken leg in the run-up. As the fastest four-point rider, he nevertheless managed to qualify for the final round just in time; he had to start first, and was almost as fast as his teammate Sophie Hinners with 46.29 seconds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the fourth German starter, J\u00f6rne Sprehe on Sprehe Hot Easy (v. Andiamo Z), things did not go smoothly in the first round and she therefore finished the course prematurely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The complete result <a href=\"https:\/\/www.longinestiming.com\/equestrian\/2026\/longines-league-of-nations-final-barcelona\/resultlist_08.html\">here<\/a> <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sophie Hinners hatte die Hand schon an der Troph\u00e4e: Sie war als eine von Acht fehlerfrei und mit 71,73 Sekunden die Schnellste im Umlauf des Grand Prix von Barcelona &#8211; mit Abstand &#8211; und deshalb startete Sophie Hinners mit Iron Dames Kaleni Jo (v.
