The third Remco Heite tournament took place in Wolvega, the Netherlands. This tournament is also known as 'the tournament with the horse', (See video about the horse symbol) because the winner receives (besides the main prize) a bonus with which he can donate a horse to an institution for handicapped people. Wolvega hosts one of the best-known horse race tracks in the Netherlands. The Invitation Group of this tournament featured grandmasters Anish Giri, Loek van Wely (the winner of 2006), Peter Heine Nielsen, Luke McShane, Bartlomiej Macieja (the winner of 2008), and Erwin L'Ami. Luke McShane took clear first place with 3.5/5 in the GM group. The rapid open saw favourites GM's Sipke Ernst and Friso Nijboer finish on 8/9.
