The two panels of judges for the day consisted of Jens Søgaard and Iben Strøm with gaits judge Mette Svarre Ehlers, as well as Vicky Nortvig and Jette Fries with gaits judge Karsten Petersen.
The best of the day among the 4-year-olds and older mares was catalog number 546 Kjærgaards Zaga by Blue Hors Zackerey – De Noir (owner and breeder: Pernille Henning Kjærgaard and Henning Kjærgaard), ridden by Ida Hofman Bang.
The judges described the mare as a well-framed and well-lined mare that works very willingly with particularly good movement and carriage. Good uphill tendency. She received 8.5 in both canter and capacity.
