Congrats Mexico   @mrv86. 

 

First ever Aga Khan title for the Mexicans! Fantastic result!!

 

WHAAAT? 

Totally surprised by the result... three years ago we didn't have a team, and now they win CAC Games and then this competition.

Someone pinch me.

Ireland's Millstreet is hosting the second and final Nations Cup of 2018 that is using the Tokyo 2020 competition format with 3-member teams.

 

Dressage is about to be completed, XC and jumping to come over the weekend... Thomas Carlile & Upsilon lead the way with ridiculous 16.80 penalties.

 

Standings...

Team - Individual

Christopher Burton is the Event Rider Masters 2018 series champion. Very well deserved, as once again today he was the only one inside the time. Certainly the best cross-country rider in the World...

Burghley cross-country is about to start. No better WEG warm-up than one of the top annual events!

Kiwis as ridiculous as ever.

 

I don't know what makes them so brave.

Caroline Powell jumped into the crowd.

 

Nobody injured thankfully, but somebody's picnic was spoiled.

[dcro 10,210]

Elizabeth Power, wow!

What exciting combination for the Irish future.

 

EDIT: They reallocated to a new stream, for whatever reson.
