BRNO, Czech Republic, June 19, 2016–Finland's Terhi Stegars and Axis TSF won the World Cup Grand Prix Freestyle Sunday a day after taking the Grand Prix for the pair's first back-to-back victories in five years at Big Tour.
Terhi and the 17-year-old Trakehner stallion scored 75.375 per cent for the Freestyle win that was their first victory on the World Cup circuit. The duo competed for Finland at the 2014 World Games in Normandy, the 2011 and 2015 European Championships and at the last two World Cup Finals, the annual individual championships.
