Switzerland seems to dominate the Rolex FEI World Cup as Daniel Etter produced an outstanding win at the opening leg of the 2009/2010 Jumping Western European League series in Oslo, Norway. After having contributed to his country’s team with a performance that won him a gold medal at the Alltech FEI European Jumping Championships at Windsor in England this summer, the rider from Berne all of 34 years showed that he and his marvelous campaigner, Peu a Peu, are still in great form. Daniel Etter’s team-mate Pius Schwizer slotted into second with Ulysse further adding to the current strength of the Swiss.

The beginning of the 13 legs in the Western European League of the 2009/2010 Rolex FEI World Cup Jumping series saw a total of 16 riders from different nations come together. 12 combinations qualified for the second-round jump-off. This included two from Switzerland and The Netherlands each and a total of four from Germany.

The venue for the competition was the new and impressive Telenor Soccer Stadium just outside Oslo city where the 16 riders were faced with 13 fences on the first-round track. Earlier the Oslo fixture was considered as an easy target for early points in the winter-long series but now with a classy field, including six of the top ten in the latest Rolex World Rankings the points are harder to win this time around.

The most difficult fence in the first round proved to be the triple combination at fence four and specially the middle element. The middle element oxer hit the floor 15 times and 19 riders could not help but fault at fence four. Out of the 40 starters only 12 could produce clear first rounds and thus qualify for the jump-off. Brazil’s Rodrigo Pessoa (Champ) and Norway’s Line Raaholt (Royal Son Z) were the two riders that retired on the course in the very first round.

Inspite of the challenging fences Daniel Etter and his gelding Peu a Peu gave an outstanding performance and touted Peu a Peu as one of the toughest horses around. The big and bold horse seems to be more in love with his job than ever as their excellent results at the Windsor Europeans was almost instantly followed by a trip to the Masters at Spruce Meadows in Calgary, Canada. Daniel Etter definitely considered himself lucky to have picked up a win early into the World Cup season so that he could get that points and relax a bit later. His gelding definitely adds on to the luck factor as he has always been an extremely sound companion.
