Tokyo Olympic Showjumping Round Up Day 1 The Full Course Showjumping Podcast

    • Sports News

Welcome to the Full Course Showjumping Podcast, we are excited to welcome Press Association journalist Andrew Baldock who brings us his Tokyo round up on Day 1 of showjumping from Tokyo 2020. 

We kick start day one of showjumping with the individual qualifier out in Tokyo and delighted that all British and Irish show jumpers are through to the individual final. Andrew provides us with an fascinating insight to the day's competition as well as looking at the success stories he also analyses some of the key combinations who haven't made the cut. 

Harry Charles "I couldn't ask for a better start - to get into the final in my first Olympics is more than I could have hoped for. That was the goal coming here, and hopefully that's the goal achieved now."

Ben Maher "As a team, we jumped three clear rounds today - we have team tactics in place this week but, setting out on day one, we're very strong. We're here to try to get a result."

Scott Brash "I think we've got a great team here, we've got a chance at a medal - but with three riders, anything can happen. If a rein snaps, we're eliminated - it's as easy as that. But I think we're all in great shape, we'll need a bit of luck, but we've got a great chance."

Our Tokyo Olympic round ups are brought to you in association with Zebra Products, Tucci Boots and Veredus Horse Wear. Visit our Instagram account @full_course_sj_podcast to enter our exciting giveaway competitions - GOOD LUCK.
