Difficult moments on day one of Europeans

Day one of the European Dressage Championships did not go entirely to plan for either Britain or Germany, who look set to battle it out for top spot on the team podium. Britain’s pathfinder Andrew Gould was eliminated from the grand prix on Indigro and Germany’s Ingrid Klimke posted a below-par mark on Vayron saying it was “the worst grand prix we have ever done”. Going into day two, Germany is on top after Katharina Hemmer and Denoix Pch scored 75.7%, but Britain is close behind after Becky Moody and Jagerbomb scored 74.83%. Carl Hester will be in action with Fame at 11.46am (UK time), followed by British anchors Lottie Fry and Glamourdale at 3.17pm.
