If you missed any of the Land Rover Burghley CCI**** (England) action over the weekend, have no fear. Burghley TV has posted individual videos of each of the rides in each phase.
Watching the eventual winner Michael Jung tackle the cross-country on La Biosthetique Sam, though, is a real riding lesson. Jung had been leading the competition after dressage on FischerRocana FST, but fell from the mare when she stumbled upon galloping into the water at the fourth fence on cross-country. You can see in the video that he chooses to trot into that water jump on “Sam.”
