Five horses must represent tomorrow (9 August) owing to “uncertainties” in the horse inspection ahead of the Agria FEI World Showjumping Championships in Herning.

Today (8 August) all 123 horses took part in the trot-up in front of the competition’s veterinary commission – headed by Nicolai Jarløv from Denmark and his colleagues, and the FEI ground jury.
