Out-of-contention Twomey pulls Serenade out of World Cup
The Cork show jumper was well placed after Friday’s first round in Lyon, France, finishing eighth with the 17-year-old mare, but eight faults in the first round of Saturday’s jump-off ended his aspirations, dropping him to 17th ahead of today’s deciding rounds.
“Considering I’m four fences off the leader, I decided to save Tinka for another day,” said Twomey. “There’s grands prix and nations cups on the horizon and, considering her age, I feel this is the right decision.”
