Vincent Capol, Bryan Lam and Natasha Lee participated in Senior Show Jumping Individual Final at the 2nd National Youth Games

 

 

Dear members,

 

Thursday, 8 August 2019 (Hong Kong) – The Senior Show Jumping Individual Final at the 2nd National Youth Games was held this morning. Our Hong Kong representatives Vincent Capol, Bryan Lam and Natasha Lee competed against 21 finalists from Beijing, Datong, Guangdong, Hebei, Heilongjiang, Hubei, Inner Mongolia, Shanghai and Zhejiang at the Yulong Jockey Club.

 

The Senior Show Jumping Individual Final was held under Table A, with one round against the clock with one jump off at the maximum height of 110cm. Placings were determined by the number of penalties and in case of equal penalties, there will be one jump off against the clock to determine the winner.

 

Following the successful qualification for the Individual Final, Bryan Lam’s round unfortunately ended earlier in the course when his horse refused at a fence which made him unseated. Vincent Capol had the best round out of the 3 Hong Kong riders and ended with 8 faults. After having the best qualifying round yesterday, Natasha Lee completed the first half of the course well, but her horse was unfortunately spooked at the filler board. Natasha did well when it was represented for the second time, but luck ran out and was eliminated at the end.

 

There were altogether 13 top placed riders with clear round qualified for the jump off. At the end, Wang Zhen from Shanghai became the Gold Medalist and finished the round in 38.99 seconds, followed by Liang Yi-ni from Inner Mongolia in 40.61 seconds on the second, and Shi Xu-jia from Inner Mongolia on the third.

 

All Senior Show Jumping riders gained a lot of experience by participating at the Games. They were very thankful for the opportunity given to represent Hong Kong and to ride the borrowed horses sponsored by the R&D Riding Club since the last few weeks.

 

The Junior Show Jumping Individual Final will take place in the afternoon. Please stay tuned for our updates. Best of luck to Vincent and Owen.

 

Best Regards,

Hong Kong Equestrian Federation
