Team GB have secured their fourth equestrian medal of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games so far, with the dressage team winning bronze in todays Grand Prix Special.Three stunning tests performed by Becky Moody, Carl Hester and Charlotte Fry scored highly enough for a podium finish, but they didnt impress the judges quite as much as Germany and Denmark. The German team were last to go and in a nail-biting finale, they managed to edge ahead of the Danes, taking home gold.There was only a tiny margin between first and second place, with Germany scoring 235.790% and Denmark 235.669%. Team GB closely followed with 232.492%.Becky Moody and Jagerbomb were first to go of the Brits and managed to produce their best ever score for this test at this level 76.489% which put them into the lead.My horse was amazing, hes only young, he just went in there and was so cool, Becky said of her homebred 10-year-old, whose father, Dante Weltino OLD, was also competing in the final under Swedens Therese Nilshagen.Becky was a late swap in to the British team when Charlotte Dujardin withdrew, but despite the pressure, she said the team have been nothing but supportive.[They] have been incredible and havent put any pressure on me at all, Becky explained. Its a massive team effort. Carl has helped me an awful lot here and my other coach, David Hunt. Theyre all such fundamental parts [of the team]. Were the tip of the iceberg, just me and the horse. The team that get us there is enormous, so its everybodys success.Becky added that the Olympic experience had been crazy.This place is amazing, the stadium is beautiful, the crowd are fantastic, she added. Its been pretty insane.Carl Hester was second to go for the British team and he and a rather exuberant Fame scored a very respectable 76.489%. He clawed back his marks from a small mistake when Fame took over slightly, but he still did enough to retain the premier position, but not for long.Denmark overtook the lead, followed by Germany, leaving Team GB taking up third place before Charlotte Fry entered the Versailles arena.Charlotte pulled off a stunning test with Glamourdale, scoring 79.483%, with the 13-year-old stallion looking incredible as he showed off his enormous power and control. His trademark extended canter wowed the judges, but their valiant efforts werent quite enough to better third position.Denmarks Catherine Laurdrop Dufour and Freestyle followed, achieving a score of 81.216% with their precise performance.It was then Germanys turn to strive for the gold medal. Jessica von Bredow and Werndl pulled off a practically immaculate test, but it was touch-and-go if they had done enough to win. However, their score was fractionally higher than the Danes, so the formidable defending champions once again took gold.Tomorrow (Sunday 4 August) the dressage action concludes with the Freestyle, the individual final and medal decider.
