The CSI4* had previously started this Saturday with the Marqués de Riscal Trophy, a 1.45m high test that counted with the participation of twenty riders. The first victory of the day in the CSI4* made the Spanish anthem sound again in Casas Novas after the victory, in 65.04s, of Álvaro González de Zarate Fernández with "Casa Diva PS". 

A very close victory for the rider from Alava, as the second best classified, the French Julien Anquetin, marked a time of 65.17s riding "Flamby des Forets", followed by another Spaniard, Ismael García Roque, who with "Brazilia DK Z", got the third best time of the course, stopping the stopwatch at 65.83s.
