Want to see just how Michael Jung scored almost 10 points better than anyone else on Day 1 of Rolex Kentucky CCI**** dressage? Watch videos of the top three rides of the day.

If you placed a bet before dressage started at the Rolex Kentucky CCI****, you’d probably have chosen Michael Jung on FischerRocana FST to win the day. But leading with a nearly 10-point margin on 34.4 penalties? Well, you might not expected quite that result.

Stephen Bradley had a lot on his mind as he cantered down the centerline at the 1996 Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event on Dr. Doolittle.

Having been eliminated after a cracking cross-country round at the Burghley Horse Trials CCI**** (England) the year before due to spur marks on Dr. Doolittle’s sides, Bradley needed to complete Rolex, then a CCI***, to show the U.S. selectors that they were worthy of the team for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Games.

Don't miss a thing as we blog ride by ride along with the action on Day 1 of dressage at the Rolex Kentucky CCI****.

All 72 horses presented at the Rolex Kentucky CCI**** passed the first horse inspection prior to dressage. Three horses were held but passed on re-inspection: Ryan Wood’s Frankie, Liz Halliday-Sharp’s HHS Cooley and Matt Brown’s Super Sox BCF. Canada's Rachel McDonough didn’t present Irish Rhythm.
