MEATH’s Elizabeth Power and Caroline Bjoerk’s home-bred Omar gelding DSL The Entertainer are the highest-placed Irish combination following the dressage phase of the World Breeding Eventing Championships for young horses at Le Lion d’Angers. One mistake at the end of their test was harshly marked by the ground jury but, on a score of 41 penalties, the pair are in joint third place in the CCI1* class for six-year-olds along with Britain’s Sarah Bullimore and Corouet. Riding the Hannoverian gelding Monkeying Around, Britain’s in-form Izzy Taylor is in first place (37.6) going into today’s cross-country phase ahead of Australia’s Paul Tapner on Bob Chaplin (38.1) who is out of the Irish Sport Horse mare Maypool Silver Seal.
