Four horses have been eliminated after the trot up, including Sweden Rocks Gopher (Isabell Silverstolpe) and Mister Sure Whiz (Fredrik Thomsson). This leaves Sweden with just three team members after their reserve horse was ruled out earlier by injury. All three Swedish scores must now count towards the team competition, which is judged on the best three from a maximum four starters from each country.
Also spun by the reining ground jury and taking their team down to three was Lil Uss Peppy (Susanne Skovrinder) for Denmark.
Italy’s PC Sliderina For Me (Manuel Cortesi) was the final horse to fail the trot-up. However, as the Italians have six horses and riders entered, they will still be able to field a full team of four, plus an individual.
