Dressage has concluded for the day in Malmö, Sweden for the HSBC FEI European Eventing Championships. Ingrid Klimke doesn’t seem to miss her former ride, Tabasco TSF (now with Marilyn Little), as she sits atop the leaderboard after dressage today with FRH Escada JS, on a score of 39.4. Sweden’s own Niklas Lindback and Mister Pooh are currently second (42.0), followed by Dirk Schrade and Hop and Skip (44.2).
Many big names are still left to go tomorrow, including William Fox-Pitt and Chilli Morning, Tina Cook and Miner’s Frolic, Michael Jung and Halunke FBW, and Vittoria Panizzon and Borough Pennyz, among others. It’s shaping up to be a very competitive weekend.
