Of the 29 horse-rider combinations to challenge Sunday’s $50,000 CSI2* BC Open Grand Prix held May 31, 2009 only two would go clear. The rest would find themselves at odds with many of the jumps on course.  In the end, it was California-based Ali Nilforushan who rode to victory on Warco Van De Halhoevre.  Also in the jump-off was Washington’s Jennifer Crooks, the first to post a clear round on SF Sadin. Aboard her Belgium Warmblood mare, Jennifer beat the time allowed of 83 seconds to secure a spot in the jump-off.
