WEG Eventing - Irish Take A Tumble On Cross Country Stage

The Irish Eventing team at the World Equestrian Games slipped from 6th to 8th place overall today (Saturday) as two of its four members were eliminated following falls on the strong cross-country stage. Neither of the riders or their horses was seriously hurt, but under FEI rules, neither competitor can now continue.

Sasha Harrison (All Love du Fenaud) and Eric Smiley (Macloud) were the fallers today, and are now eliminated from the world championships at Jerez.

However, individually, after the cross country stage, the remaining Irish competitors are now placed as follows, with the show jumping element concluding the three-day event tomorrow (Sunday).

(Ireland's show jumping team of Kevin Babington, Cian O'Connor, Peter Charles and Dermott Lennon will start their competitions next week.)
