Ireland’s Susie Berry has gone into third place in the CCI4*-L on the second day of Bramham Horse Trials dressage riding Ringwood LB. The 26-year-old rider and Helen Caton’s 13-year-old impressed the ground jury of Polly Ann Huntington from Australia, Britain’s Annabel Scrimgeour and France’s Xavier Le Sauce to score 29.6.

“I’m really pleased with him. He actually was just a little bit behind my leg so it could be even better,” Susie said after her test. “But we had a clear round and I thought he tried really hard because in the warm-up he sort of shrunk into himself a little bit. But he went in with a bit more atmosphere and he was like, ‘Oh, I’ll show off and flick my front feet around’, so I’m thrilled with him.”
