Harrie and Exuis Powerfee was one of 16 combinations to jump clear in the last World Cup Qualifer at indoor Brabant in s'Hertogenbosch. In the jump-off Jessica Keurten and Castle Forbes Libertina set what looked like an almost unbeatable time in 32.60, Harrie and Powerfee had a fantastic round in a faster time of 32.35 but just tipped the first part of the double to have 4 faults. Rolf-Goran Bengtsson with Casall La Silla was last to go, he was clear and fast to win the class in a time of 32.50. Edwina Alexander was 3rd with Cevo Itot Du Chateau.
Harrie finished in 23rd place with 34 points on the Westeren European League for the final of the Rolex FEI World Cup. Jessica Keurten won the league with 90 points, the most points ever gained in one season. The first 18 riders placed in the standings qualify for the final in Geneva which takes place from 15th until 18th April.
