Irish show jumpers ‘signal start’ of comeback
While the result did not lift Ireland off the bottom of the league, it saw them move to 3.5 points, one behind Belgium. The team finishing last at the season’s end is relegated. The US leads on 21 points.
France, bidding to win the title for the third successive year, showed they are, after all, serious about defending their crown, a fault-free second round from the team giving them victory on six faults. The home side and Germany tied in second place with 16 faults.
