New VC points to Jens Fredricson: "Superbly done"

The World Cup jumping in Verona started in the best way for the Swedish part with a zero for Jens Fredricson.

However, brother and world setter Peder Fredricson did not succeed as well.

Christian K brought with him two barriers and a jump-off and World Cup points were just to be forgotten.

13 crews went to jump and Jens Fredricson did what he could but did not manage to challenge for the fastest times.

However, it was eventful in the jump where two crews fell off.

First Emily Moffitt fell off, then Carlos Enrique Lopez Lizarazo went downhill after a misunderstanding between him and his horse.

The rider lay on the ground and there was a pause for a while.

Barriers fell

When other riders were forced to bet on fast times, some boom fell here and there and Jens Fredricson's double zero landed in fifth place - in a strong starting field.

- Oslo was fantastically good but not close to this starting field, says SVT Sports expert Lotta Björe.

- Superbly done.

When Jens has decided on something, it almost always happens.

The Swede now has 27 points in two competitions and is second in the total.

Frenchman Simon Delestre took care of the first place.
