Think Jersey Fresh is the only FEI event you should be paying attention to? Think again – this weekend’s four-star competition at Marbach in southern Germany is certainly one to watch, and even better, it’s the first European event that we’ll get to live-stream in full this year. If you’re a H&C+ subscriber (which, you really should be!), you can tune in for the conclusion of dressage as well as stadium jumping and cross country phases tomorrow and Saturday.
Here’s a look at the broadcast schedule on H&C+:
It’s no surprise to see Ingrid Klimke and SAP Horseware Hale Bob OLD out in front after day one, earning a score of 24.6 from judges Dr. Helmut Mett and Hanna Rogge. Sweden’s Katrin Norling and Fernando-Ukato are in early second place on a score of 26.6, followed by 2014 World Equestrian Games gold medalist Sandra Auffarth and Viamant du Matz in third on a score of 26.7. Not far behind in fourth are Michael Jung and fischerWild Wave, earning a score of 27.0. The defending Olympic gold medalist has three rides in the CCI4*-S this weekend: Highlighter, fisherWild Wave and fischerChipmunk, who we’ll see tomorrow.
