Thai rider Siengsaw Lertratanachai was one of the final 4 riders (out of 21 from the first day) to compete in the Final round of the FEI World Jumping Challenge Final 2013 today at Caracas Country Club, Caracas, Venezuela.
In today's competition, all four riders including Isabel Sanchez DOM, Phillipe Burckel MRI, Janine Khoo SIN and Siengsaw Lertratanachai THA were riding with the rotation of horses. In the first round, each rider compete with his/her own horse and then ride 3 other horses which belong to other participants for the next 3 rounds.
At last, Isabel DOM were the only one with perfect clear round on all 4 horses and obviously won the final. Siengsaw THA did a good clear round with Templario, After Eight Z, Benala, and 1 time fault for Carnida Z so she was placed 2nd. Phillipe MRI came in 3rd at total 16 penalties having 2 rails down on Templario and another rail down with Carnida Z. Janine SIN in 4th place at 24 penalties after the fall with Templario. After all, Templario seems to be the hardest horse considering 32 faults in all 4 rotation rounds.

Siengsaw said with a blushing face and big smile,
"Thanks to Templario I was very pleased with the result! From 14th place up to 2nd place in few days it was a hard work we've done together but it paid off so well. 2nd place is definitely incredible and amazing. Templario was such a great partner!"
"Also thanks to After Eight Z, Benela and Carnida Z, they all did a good clear round with me today. Thank you all the great supporters -- Thailand Equestrian Federation, MaxWin, B.Grimm, PTT Group, Chang, AirAsia and HorseMove Thailand. Last but not least, thanks to my super mum and P'Ae my super coach, Pa'Orn of Horse Lover's club, P'Kung the superb reporter from SiamSport, and all the friends and fans who are cheering and sending all the great supports from Thailand!"
