Out of the 41 horses who started the CCI**** cross-country at Luhmuhlen, 29 finished. Six retired on course, and six were eliminated. Five went double clear, inside the time. The top 10 after dressage has shuffled a bit; overnight leader Lucinda Fredericks went clean but 9.2 time penalties dropped Flying Finish to 4th. Michael Jung now leads the CCI**** (as well as the CIC***), going double clear with Leopin FST. Andrew Hoy and Rutherglen also added nothing to their score, to move from 4th to 2nd. Oli Townend and new ride Armada round out the top 3.
The pride of the USA, Colleen Rutledge and Shiraz moved up from 37th to 16th after a clear round with 8 time. Go Colleen and Luke!
