The eventing squad that will represent Britain in the second leg of the FEI Nations Cup Series in Ballindenisk, Ireland (10-14 April) has been selected.
The 4 team members have been named as:
- Rosalind Canter (Zenshera, owned by Rosalind)
- Nicky Roncoroni (Stonedge, owned by Janey Barclay Roncoroni)
- Izzy Taylor (Allercombe Ellie, owned by Frances Carter and Susan Holyroyd)
- Lucy Wiegersma (Mr Chunky, owned by Lucy with Huw Lloyd, Mr Christopher and Sarita Perkins)
Team manager Philip Surl said: “We have an exciting mix of new and established riders on the team for Ballindenisk, who are on a selection of very promising looking horses.
“It will be great to see Ros Canter in action at her first Nations Cup competition.”
Last year Britain won the series despite fielding a relatively inexperienced squad.
After the 1st leg of the competition in Fontainebleau (20-23 March 2014), Britain are currently in 3rd place with 8 points. The Netherlands are on 9 and France lead with 11.
The British CICO squad are supported by the UK Sport lottery funded World Class Programme.
