The pressure is on the home team in the Agria Blenheim European Championships cross-country phase after Britain’s first rider Yasmin Ingham had a fall from Rehy DJ two-thirds of the way round the course. Rehy DJ is such a straight, honest horse, Yasmin was able to present him on fences on tight angles – particularly coming over the angled brush out of the water at fence 19 –and the horse kept rising to the task. Yasmin, the pathfinder for the British team, running in partnership with Agria, was lying ninth after dressage on Rehy DJ on a score of 29. Fourth at the young rider Europeans in 2018 together, this was their first senior championship as a partnership. Yasmin’s score was counting, so Piggy’s score of 29.4 will now come into play for the British team result.
