Great Britain’s Bubby Upton and Cannavaro keep their place at the top of the lead board in the CCI5*-L after dressage at Luhmuhlen. Bubby achieved a score of 24.9 on Thursday with Rachel Upton’s 15-year-old gelding, a score which could not be bettered throughout the rest of the dressage phase. Lauren Nicholson is lying second for the USA with Vermiculus on a score of 26.7 and Tim Price and Vitali complete the top three at this stage of the competition on 27.1.
