Equestrian: Ingham & GB take team sixth in European championships

But British riders Collett and McEwen among individual medals

Isle of Man equestrian competitor, Yasmin Ingham and Great Britain have finished sixth in the team standings at this year's FEI Eventing European Championships.

The rider from Greeba - now based in Cheshire - was part of a six-strong GB squad which went into the competition as defending champions at Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire from 18-21 September.

Individually, however, Great Britain enjoyed success with Laura Collett securing individual gold and fellow GB competitor Tom McEwen claiming individual bronze.

Overall team winners for 2025 were Germany with a combined score of 124.9 following by Ireland in second on 161.9.

Rounding out the team top three was France on 167.5.

For Ingham, it had been a positive start after the opening dressage sessions on Thursday, 18 September and Friday, 19 September where she was running inside the top ten and was as high as joint-third on day one.

However, a fall for her and Rehy DJ during the cross-country test on Saturday, 20 September ultimately saw the pair eliminated from the event.

Both rider and horse were okay following the fall.

There were also falls in the cross-country phase for fellow British riders Caroline Harris, Piggy March and Bubby Upton.
