Longines FEI European Championships 2021

A big kiss for Levis de Muze, aka Porky, from Greece's Ioli Mytilineou who sits fourth individually ahead of Sunday's final after three incredible clear rounds.

She had great first round, followed by a second round where her horse Loyd put on the breaks already ahead on the start line to eventually end on 17 faults, but managed to turn it all around to finish on only nine faults in round three.

"Ermindo made one mistake and I the other. The mistake Ermindo made is just due to lack of experience and he won't have a fault like that when he gets more milage. And if I ride a few more years, I might not have the mistake I made at the last fence," Rolf said to the Swedish media after the class.

Photo © Jenny Abrahamsson for World of Showjumping It's been a disappointing championship for the French, that finished 6th overall...

Photo © Jenny Abrahamsson for World of Showjumping ...and their only hope now is Olivier Robert who is ranked 6th individually with Vivaldi Des Meneaux after another clear in yesterday's last round of the team final.

Photo © Jenny Abrahamsson for World of Showjumping Eduardo Alvarez Aznar did not have the best of days, and finished on eight faults with Legend.

Photo © Jenny Abrahamsson for World of Showjumping. The face of disappointment... Eoin McMahon after knocking down the front pole on the last Longines oxer in Friday's final.

Photo © Jenny Abrahamsson for World of Showjumping A moment for Konstantin Deeken Künnemann and AK's Crowney, who despite a refusal in the penultimate combination managed to reorganise themselves and finish the course without problems.

Photo © Jenny Abrahamsson for World of Showjumping. When Peder Fredricson and Catch Me Not S only had one horse left to go, a carriage for the prize giving turned up outside the warm-up. This was clearly not Catch Me Not's favourite thing in the world and made him very unsettled. Still the two kept their focus, delivered a great clear round and are now 5th ahead of the individual final.
