Para riders trot up ahead of today’s start of the competition


  • The seven British para dressage horses all trotted up last night ahead of today’s competition.

    But unfortunately Ricky Balshaw’s ride, Academy Award, has been held for re-inspection in the morning.

    The remaining six all passed without trouble.

    Chef d’equipe David Hunter has announced his team as:

    Lee Pearson (Grade Ib) with Gentleman
    Jo Pitt (Grade II) with Estralita
    Sophie Christiansen (Grade Ia) with Rivaldo of Berkeley
    Anne Dunham (Grade Ia) with Teddy

    Competition gets underway tomorrow starting with Grade IV with Grade Ib ending the day as the first part of the team competition.
