When is the Le Mans tournament. Amazing that so many were able to enter it at the last minute. 

MER Grand Prix competitions are scheduled for both Thursday and Friday. Riders can enter only one of them.

 

And I forgot. Alex Baker is in Le Mans too, trying to become a surprise team rider in Tokyo (and potentially the savior of the Irish team). @OlympicIRL

Start list will be released later today.

There it is... https://results.worldsporttiming.com/event/46/competition/1220/startlist

 

Only Annabelle Collins tomorrow, everyone else is going for Friday (and an extra day of training ).

Poland wrote a letter to the FEI requesting that the Lier result be invalidated. It probably won't help, but it's a good decision. These are not fair play rules.

Funny how Lier is always the crime scene of these Ukraine-Poland controversies. Must be the most hated Belgian town in Poland.

 

p.s. I don't think this appeal stands a chance. If they remove Ukraine, then they also must remove the whole Chinese team.

[dcro 10,211]

Cruel.  Collins misses out by 0.4%. Multiple costly mistakes (first extension, first passage, zig-zag, one tempis).

 

End of the dream for Bermuda. 

 

Venezuela or (probably) Chile it is.

[dcro 10,211]

Start list for tomorrow... https://results.worldsporttiming.com/event/46/competition/1219/startlist

 

Qabil Ambak who holds the hot-seat, will go right off the bat, so that's nice. Then Singapore. Then India.

 

Looks like it is a late withdrawal from Alex Baker... Damn. Ireland loses another option.

Have we any options left?
