- Getting there and feeling that everything is as it should be and that it feels as good as it does.

It is very important to me if you look ahead, says von Eckermann to SVT Sport after the great feeling with King Edward, with whom he won the WC in August.

The team was one of 16 that made it to the jump-off.

- I would have liked to have won, but I have to be satisfied with third place.

He jumped fantastically and it was a lot of fun.

It felt great again after Gothenburg wasn't so good, so that's positive.

Peder Fredricson back as seventh

American McLain Ward won with HH Azur at 37.86 and won SEK 3.7 million.

Second was Julien Epaillard on Donatello d'Auge with 38.06 (2.3 million SEK).

von Eckermann and King Edward had 38.52 (1.7 million SEK).

After a short break, Peder Fredricson and Catch Me Not were back with a seventh place for the 2021 EC bronze crew.
