FEI Course Designer Guilherme Jorge built a power-and-speed track for the 107 competitors in The Jalisco Cup that led to thirty-six double clear rounds. The top five competitors stopped the clock within a second of one another, but the fastest was Juan Ignacio Pacheco aboard his 10-year-old black mare, Botija la Campana, who stopped the clock in 25.84 seconds.
