It’s show jumping day at Defender Burghley and we’re on the edge of our seats anticipating this year’s winner. Show jumping tends to be influential here, and while the overnight leader Gemma Stevens has a decent gap in hand (7.3 penalties, to be precise), it’s by no means over until it’s over. EquiRatings dug into the stats behind the leaderboard toppers’ show jumping, and you can view the breakdown here.
As for today’s schedule, here’s what’s on:
8:45 a.m. BEST / 3:45 a.m. EST: Final Horse Inspection
10:30 a.m. BEST / 5:30 a.m. EST: Show Jumping Morning Session
1:30 p.m. BEST / 8:30 a.m. EST: Shetland Grand National
