The entire U.S. show jumping squad that earned silver at the Olympics on Friday will be starting Monday in the individual medal competition qualifier.
Kent Farrington, whose mount, Greya, was under the weather last week will stay on the sidelines and not ride in Paris. Originally named to the team, he was replaced by traveling alternate Karl Cook with Caracole de la Roque, who put in clear rounds over two days and helped the USA to the medal.
“The three medalists earned their shot,” said Coach Robert Ridland, referring to Laura Kraut and McLain Ward as well as Karl, while explaining the lineup for the final phase of these Games. The team silver is the only medal earned in Paris by the U.S. so far.
