Equestrian: Ingham in 3rd Place as the 5* Kentucky event enters its final phase

Sun, 01 May 2022

The Isle of Man’s Yasmin Ingham has everything to play for today as she enters the final phase of her Kentucky 5* campaign.

The 24 year from Greeba was lying third overnight in the prestigious Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event. She is just 1.6 penalties from a second place position and has a ‘pole in hand’ over fourth.

5-star Eventing is the highest level of Equestrian competition and Ingham currently sits on the podium alongside double Olympic champion Michael Jung of Germany (1^st) and Boyd Martin from the USA (2^nd).

Jung has won the Kentucky event three consecutive times and is bidding to make an historic fourth, making it eleven 5* wins, while Martin is two times Pan-American team gold medalist and individual gold medalist and has won two events at 5*.

Yesterday Ingham performed a flawless Cross Country Round going clear just 7 seconds outside the optimum time.
