Find out how Izzy Taylor stayed in the lead in Britain’s only CCI4*-L of the 2020 eventing season – and who withdrew both her top-placed rides
Izzy Taylor maintained the lead she had established after dressage with a clear cross-country round on Monkeying Around in the CCI4*-L at Barefoot Retreats Burnham Market.
She came home six seconds under the time allowed of 10 minutes on her own and Mark Sartori’s nine-year-old, adding nothing to her dressage mark of 23.2. This gives her an advantage of 3.1 penalties over second-placed Nicola Wilson and JL Dublin going into showjumping.
