Stamford, England—Sept. 4  

The world’s two leading event riders are sharing the top spot after dressage at the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials (Great Britain), the sixth and final leg of the FEI Classics™.

William Fox-Pitt, a record six-time winner here, has raised the stakes with a brilliant performance on four-star first-timer Fernhill Pimms with a test that equaled the Olympic champion Michael Jung’s (Germany) score of 34.2 on FisherRocana FST yesterday.

British-based U.S. rider Tiana Coudray had a lot to smile about today as she drove her lorry home from the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials. 

While she’s not competing in the CCI**** with her top mount, Ringwood Magister, Coudray just topped a very large and competitive Dubarry Burghley Young Event Horse 5-Year-Old Final with her own and Dr. Liz Williams’ Cavalier Crystal (Jack Of Diamonds—Cavalier Iris) on a score of 83.

Stamford, England—Sept. 3 

As anticipated, the reigning Olympic and European champion Michael Jung of Germany has made quite an impression on his first visit to the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials and is in the lead after the first day of dressage.

 The only U.S. rider to go today, Lynn Symansky on Donner, produced a test that scored 47.7 and put them in 14^th on the first day of dressage.

Colleen Rutledge and Laine Ashker go on Friday, as does U.S.-based Irish rider Tim Bourke.

Lynn Symansky updated her Facebook page with the news that Donner "had to jog twice due to his usual Deer antics," but was accepted by the ground jury of the Burghley CCI****. (You can read Symansky's blog about her journey to Burghley, "Headed To The Biggest, Baddest Four-Star.")

U.S. eventer Laine Ashker is in England for the famed Land Rover Burghley CCI**** with her beloved Anthony Patch (or "Al"). And she's taking the Chronicle along for the ride via Instagram. She's the Chronicle's guest-grammer for the weekend!
