Eventing
Harald Ambros in 49th place after dressage
Rider Harald Ambros is in 49th place after day one of the Olympic individual eventing competition.
In his fourth Olympic participation, the 44-year-old scored 36.5 faults in the first dressage discipline with his horse Vitorio du Montet in rainy conditions in the Palace Park of Versailles. The Upper Austrian thus finished in the back third of the field of 63 classified participants. The cross-country follows on Sunday and the show jumping on Monday.
In the lead is Great Britain's Laura Collett, who set a new Olympic record with 82.5 percent or 17.5 faults. The final of the top 25 will take place on Monday afternoon (3.00 pm). Ambros is currently 6.1 points off the top 25. Upper Austrian rider Lea Siegl had to forgo a start after her horse Fighting Line failed the health test on Friday and was therefore not allowed to compete.
