Welcome back to the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials! We’re all set to see our top 25, including one American in Lynn Symansky, show jump on a tough course that caused plenty of problems early this morning.
You can take a virtual walk around the course in this preview from Horse & Hound, and we’ll be kicking off the action at 9:25 a.m. EST for what’s sure to be a nail-biting finish all the way to the end.
Refresh this page periodically for the latest updates. Go Burghley!

10:33 a.m. EST: Michael Jung comes to Rolex for the first time in 2015, wins. Michael Jung comes to Burghley for the first time, wins. Ironically enough, Tim Price has placed second to Michael on both occasions. At Rolex, when asked if Tim would come back to Kentucky, he looked at Michael and laughed, “No!” #butpleasecomebackTim

Ringwood Sky Boy & @timpricenzl can be no worse than 2nd – clear! pic.twitter.com/DDLOyuc02c

10:29 a.m. EST: WOW! We eat our words, Tim! Tim pilots Ringwood Sky Boy to a CLEAR ROUND. The pressure is really on Michael and Sam now, as they do not have a rail in hand. Ringwood Sky Boy had four rails down at Badminton in 2014 and three in 2015. Way to ride to the occasion!
10:28 a.m. EST: Ringwood Sky Boy is not the best show jumper, but he’s clear halfway round.
10:27 a.m. EST: Fun fact brought to you by EquiRatings: no one has finished on their dressage score like Chris Burton just did in the last three years of Burghley.
10:26 a.m. EST:
Classic Moët & Jonelle Price unlucky to have the first part of treble down #prov5th pic.twitter.com/PJc38rw3w8

10:26 a.m. EST: Here we go! Tim Price is in to put the pressure on Michael Jung.
10:25 a.m. EST: And she won’t do it, sadly. Jonelle has the first part of the triple down.
10:24 a.m. EST: Chris Burton has finished on his dressage score and Jonelle Price is the only other who stands the do the same. She’s in the ring now!

10:23 a.m. EST: Chris Burton and TS Jamaimo show their experience and jump a clear round to remain on a score of 45.0. That’s their dressage score, by the way.
10:21 a.m. EST:
“he seems to be getting better and better so I’m delighted!!” Sir Mark following a fabulous clear

10:20 a.m. EST: Damn, not the day for Bill Levett and Improvise. They have 5 down to drop down to 15th position. This moves Lynn and Donner into 14th.
10:19 a.m. EST:
Only 5 people have finished sub 50 in last 3 Burghleys. We have one already (Haruzac) and any of the next 5 could join him. #EliteGroup
