Without sponsors, great events like this one simply wouldn't happen, so as supporters of Equestrian sport make sure you make the sponsors your first port of call if their product or service is one you require - and let them know that you are at their door because of their sponsorship!

With the final dressage scores in for Day One we saw Italy in the lead after two riders having ridden for each team and Susanna Bordone and Ava were sitting comfortably in first place with 33.80%. Ireland's individual competitor Sasha Harrison and All Love du Fenaud will be very pleased with their provisional result - 2nd placing with 39.80%. Another of the individual competitors, this time Mary King for Great Britain and King Solomon III took provisional 3rd spot with 40.60%.Provisional fourth place saw Ireland again this time with Jonty Evans and Cregwarrior sitting on 41.60%. Great Britain's Leslie Law and Shear L'Eau were lying provisionally in 5th spot with their score of 43.20% and this was the highest score for the British team and combined with Janette Breakwells' 14th provisional placing on Over to You this put Team Great Britain in 2nd spot.
