Just one pole separates Valkenswaard United and the Shanghai Swans going into the final showdown on Saturday in Samorin.

Ali Ramsay and Bonita VH Keizershof Z are 4th and Hyde Moffatt and Gisborne VDL 2nd in pair of Power & Speed stakes at TIEC.

The 26-year-old punched his ticket towards the series Final in Leipzig, Germany next April with a cool jump-off round.

Rodrigo Pessoa (BRA) and Lord Lucio were 2nd and Lauren Balcomb (AUS) with Verdini D’Houtveld were 3rd at Tryon Fall 4.

The Chilean rider scored his second Welcome win at Tryon International Equestrian Center over Michel Vaillancourt's formidable course.

The pair were competing in just their second show together and first trip to Tryon in the Developing Jumper Six-Year-Old series.

Conor Swail continued his winning streak with a win aboard Vital Chance de la Roque to establish a commanding North American league lead.

The five-time Olympian moved into the number one spot for the first time in his career, ousting Daniel Deusser of Germany.

Sixty entries tackled Guilherme Jorge's course, with Parot and his relatively new partner topping the field.

A pair of 4-year-old mares – Ribery (60,000 euros) and Toulouse van het Beeckhof Z (32,000 euros) – have been sold to Canadian interests.
