With less than a year left until the start of the XXXIII Olympic Summer Games in Paris, France in 2024, USEA podcast host Nicole Brown sat down with USEF Eventing Technical Advisor and Chef d'Equipe Bobby Costello to discuss the USEF Land Rover Eventing Team's recent results in the SAP Cup at the CHIO Aachen CCIO4*-S and recapped the season so far.
There was excitement through the very last rider in the SAP-Cup at CHIO Aachen this afternoon. The concluding phase, cross-country, was the decider in the CCIO4*-S, with Germany taking team gold and Great Britain's Yasmin Ingham on Banzai du Loir winning individual gold. The U.S. team took home silver.
It promises to be an extremely exciting day tomorrow in the cross-country competition of the SAP-Cup at the Aachen CCIO4*-S. After the dressage and jumping, the British team Olympic gold medallist Tom McEwen is heading the field, but Germany's Michael Jung is close at his heels. The British team is also in the lead, ahead of Germany, while the U.S. team fell from second after dressage to fourth.
