British pair Emily Moffitt and Ben Maher of London Knights were the victors at the Longines Global Champions League event in Stockholm.

Performing at an Olympic Stadium packed full of Swedish fans, Moffitt and Maher rode faultlessly, finishing on the one fault they had picked up yesterday. 

“I was saying before I got on my horse just how amazing the crowd is," Moffitt said of the atmosphere.

"It makes it more fun when you go clear."

In second place with eight faults were Berlin Eagles, comprising home favourite Malin Baryard-Johnsson and her German team mate Ludger Beerbaum.
