The young Swiss rider and his horse Chaplin edged Holland's Maikel van der Vleuten and Dana Blue by just 0.28 seconds to seal his first LGCT victory. Maikel van der Vleuten and Dana Blue fisnihed second in the LGCT in Madrid. Watching from the warmup arena, Van der Vleuten's face dropped as his father patted him on the shoulder. Van der Vleuten also thanked his new owner. "I also wanted to say a big thanks to Marta Ortega, she bought Dana Blue for me a couple of weeks ago," said Van der Vleuten.
