In a total of five rounds riders seemingly flew over the ever growing wall, effortlessly. The evenings top height hit a rather impressive 2m15/7ft!!

Unfortunately for the Brits the bricks fell first with speed queen, Laura Renwick riding Roller Coaster, holding out the longest.

Victoria Gulliksen, joint winner of the HOYS 2015 Puissance, rode a strong three rounds on board Grand Balou before finishing the pairs evening at 2m/6ft5.

Guy Williams had a very unfortunate innings, riding out of the arena in the first round on board Depardieu van T Kiezelhof.
