Each day’s competitors are split into two blocks, with one break in the middle.

    Twenty-three horses are set to start at Maryland, having all passed the first trot-up today. There was a late change in the line-up when Boyd Martin decided to withdraw his 2021 Maryland winner On Cue and swap in Commando 3, a three-time four-star winner and five-star debutant, instead.

    Tamie Smith starts as favourite with world team silver medallist Mai Baum, who is contesting his final top-level competition this weekend.

    The dressage will be judged by the ground jury, consisting of Christina Klingspor (Sweden), Valerie Pride (USA) and Xavier Le Sauce (France).
