Ten teams will compete in the €300,000 Furusiyya Nations Cup Consolation Round, the afternoon Sept. 28. The class is held for the teams who will not advance to the second round of the Furusiyya Nations Cup Final held in Barcelona, Spain, as part of the Barcelona CSIO. The class kicks off at 2:30 local time.
The teams will compete in reverse order of their finish in yesterday’s first round. The U.S. team, who just missed the cut for tomorrow’s Round 2, will go tenth today. The rules allow for chefs d’equipe to sub in different riders for Round 2, and Katie Dinan will get a chance to go today on Nougat du Vallet. She’ll be joined by McLain Ward on Rothchild, Lucy Davis on Barron and Beezie Madden on Simon.
