Mylen Kruse secured the title at the German Show Jumping Championships.
The 23-year-old from Zeven stayed in Balve, Sauerland, with her horse Cha Mu in a total of three rounds on Thursday and Saturday without a drop. Kruse received only two penalty points due to time errors.
Unlike international championships, there is a separate ranking for women at the DM. Last year’s winner Katrin Eckermann decided not to start. Instead, she is riding this weekend at the higher-priced tournament of the Global Champions Tour in Cannes.
