Meyer-Zimmermann finishes fourth in Stockholm race

Janne Friederike Meyer-Zimmermann rode to a fourth-place finish at the ninth stop of the Global Champions Tour. The 43-year-old show jumper from Pinneberg, along with her horse Messi, delivered a faultless performance in the jump-off at the Grand Prix of Stockholm. However, they were too slow to secure the win. The victory in the jumping competition went to Belgian rider Olivier Philippaerts with Miro, who was almost two seconds faster than Meyer-Zimmermann. He was followed by Swede Wilma Hellström with Cicci.

The competition proved disappointing for Philipp Weishaupt from Riesenbeck, the European Championship runner-up who has already been nominated for the Olympic Games with Zineday. Weishaupt and his top horse received 16 penalty points and finished in 31st place. Just ahead of him was Swedish world champion Henrik von Eckermann with 16 penalty points with his top horse King Edward.

With six stages of the series remaining, Max Kühner from Starnberg, competing for Austria, has taken the lead in the rankings, ahead of Danish rider Andreas Schou. The best German rider in the rankings is Christian Kukuk, who did not participate in the Stockholm event, currently sitting in fourth place.
