British pathfinder Yasmin Ingham and Rehy DJ sadly suffered a rider fall during the cross-country phase of the Agria FEI European Eventing Championships.
Ingham & Rehy DJ were jumping well through the course, showing precision and confidence over the early technical combinations.
Both horse and rider were unharmed in the incident and walked back to the stables.
The fence was problematic as fellow GB (Individual) rider Caroline Harris also suffered a rider fall at the same location.
British Team Eliminated After Second Cross-Country Fall
Second team rider, Piggy March riding Halo have also suffered a rider fall at fence 20, a corner in the water resulting in Team GB now being eliminated.
Halo seemed to mis-judge the fence and took off a stride early results in Piggy landing in the water.
At the time of writing 18 riders have started the course, with only 9 of those completing without any jumping penalties.
The optimum time of 10 minutes and 01 second is also proving hard to catch, with the quickest round so far picking up 8 time penalties for being 20 seconds over the time.
