Already qualified for the World Cup Final in Las Vegas, Horseware sponsored rider Daniel Etter left no one in doubt of his intentions when winning the final leg of the Rolex FEI World Cup competition in Hertogenbosch.
“It’s always nicer to beat Marcus Ehning and Michael Witaker than somebody knows”
The huge smile said it all after a tremendous display of horsemanship which left no one in doubt who was going to be the leading contender for glory in the final next month. The pressure was on for the last competitor in the jump off, as Daniel blazed his way to the finish pushing hard up the long line and dissecting the corners.
A blazing gallop into the final obstacle, a diagonally placed oxer gave the Swiss rider a clear round in an amazing time to clinch success.
The popular rider received a rapturous round of applause after the winning round. It was made even more special with the presence of his sister Andrea, the Irish based horse producer who was on hand to congratulate her younger brother.
Daniel, son of the legendry Horse producer Gerhard now has his sights set on the final of the Rolex FEI world Cup next month in Las Vegas.
