Find out who is at the head of affairs after dressage at Burnham Market today - and whose new rides are close behind
Izzy Taylor is in the lead at the close of the dressage today (18 September) in the CCI4*-L at Barefoot Retreats Burnham Market, Norfolk with a score of 23.3 on her own and Mark Sartori’s Monkeying Around.
The nine-year-old Bertoli gelding, winner of the six-year-old World Championships at Le Lion d’Angers in 2017, excels in this phase and produced a very attractive, accurate test.
