CO Down’s Sophie Dalm (24) finished on the podium in the two-star Grand Prix at Kronenberg, The Netherlands, last Sunday.

Riding her own nine-year-old gelding Jack van het Dennehof (Toulon x Quidam de Revel), the Belgian-based rider was one of 18 clears from the 60-strong startlist in the first round. Just four of those managed to deliver a second clear in the timed round and Dalm’s time of 40.22 seconds was good enough for third place and €3,750.
