DHL presents CCI****: Boyd Martin in the lead after cross-country

Boyd Martin took the lead after a phenomenal round in today’s four-star cross-country: “It was a fantastic course and my horse gave me the most amazing round today! To me, Shamwari is the best horse in the world and coming to Luhmühlen proved to be the right decision. I wanted to come here because I knew the footing and the course would really suit him.”
Jonelle Price (NZL), who was just three seconds over the time limit, climbed from sixth after dressage up into second: “Cross-country is simply her thing. The mare absolutely loves it! She does tend to get a little strong but she was amazing today.” British rider Laura Collett, who rode four-star first-timer Mr Bass, is ecstatic: “My horse was out of this world today. He gave me the best round ever and I am so proud! The course rode superbly and I could not be happier.” Their super fast round moved them up from18th after dressage into third place.

Axel Z
It is with great sadness and regret that we announce that Chloe Raty (BEL) and Axel Z an 11-year old gelding had a fall at fence 18b, an upright, while competing in the CCI**** at Luhmühlen on 16 June 2018. The horse received immediate veterinary attention and was
transported to the veterinary clinic. Unfortunately, spinal injuries were diagnosed and Axel Z sadly could not be saved. The rider was taken to hospital for thorough examination, which revealed no injuries.
