Olympic eventing showjumping news and results
For the first time since 1972, the British team won gold, and by a very comfortable margin, too.
Tom McEwen, also representing Great Britain, jumped two fabulous clear showjumping rounds on the final day to pick up individual silver with Toledo De Kerser.
Horse & Hound’s rider of the day is Japan’s Kazuma Tomoto, who trains with and is based at William Fox-Pitt’s yard in Dorset. Kazuma broke Japanese records to finish fourth individually.
