Smith keeps it clear

JAMES SMITH delivered the fastest jump-off round and the only treble clear to take the top Horse of the Year Show (HOYS) ticket in the Foxhunter second round, riding Juno Rose 23.

James was third to go of the five riders through to the final phase on Thomas Carruthers’ nine-year-old mare, with both of those who went before him having lowered a pole.

“I thought if I stayed half on it that would be enough, but in the end we were the only treble clear,” said James, who took the win over Juno Rose’s previous rider Emma Crawford, the fastest fourfaulter on Cliftons Adelaide.

James has been riding the Erdento x Nissan Caretano Z mare since January and the partnership were fresh from rankings class wins in Maubeuge and Sancourt in France.

Rider Denies Doping After Team Loses Olympic Placing - Tine Magnus and the Belgian team said they do not know the source of the drug that caused the positive test

Olympic eventer Tine Magnus has denied ever doping after her Paris ride Dia Van Het Lichterveld Z gave a positive test at the Games. This means the Belgian team, which came fourth, has been disqualified. On 4 September, the FEI said the 10-year-old mare, owned by Kris van Vaerenbergh, tested positive for trazodone, which is listed as an antidepressant on the FEI's prohibited substances list.
