Wathelet, the final competitor in the jump-off, lost control of his reins early in the run but kept Lanthanus on track. The 9-year-old gelding, accustomed to a more liberal riding style thanks to its bitless bridle, cleared every obstacle without a hitch and sped through even the tightest of course turns. In the end, Wathelet, ranked 22nd in the world prior to the competition, finished the jump-off in an astonishing 37.04 seconds to take home the purse. His defeat of the highly regarded Kurten notches a benchmark for Ukrainian show jumping and gives the upstart nation high hopes for Beijing in 2008. (WCSN, WCSN.com)
