US Equestrian has announced a pre-competition change prior to the start of the jumping team qualifier today in Versailles. Kent Farrington and Greya (Colestus x Contender) will be replaced by Karl Cook and Caracole de La Roque (Zandor Z x Kannan) for today’s team qualifier, which begins at 11.00 AM.
"There is a small question mark with Greya, which is allergy related, and erring on the side of extreme caution and with the no drop score in the format, we have made the decision to bring in Karl Cook and Caracole de La Roque," said Chef d'Equipe Robert Ridland in a press release from US Equestrian.
Cook will compete alongside Laura Kraut and Baloutinue (Balou du Rouet x Landor S), as well as McLain Ward and Ilex (Baltic VDL x Chin Chin) – who will anchor the team.
The top ten teams will move on to the team final tomorrow to determine the team medals.
