Denmark earned double gold at the FEI Pony European Championships. FEI rankings - number one – Alexander Yde Helgstrand won individual gold after a very good test with Adriano B at the European Championships for Ponies in Strzegom. Denmark stood on the highest step of the podium after both the team and individual classes. Saturday’s cross-country trials hasn’t changed much in the team rankings after dressage. Great Britain is still in the lead, second position stays with France, and the Irish have jumped into the third place.

Rotterdam (NED) will host the Longines FEI European Championships for para dressage, the third to be held alongside Jumping and Dressage, from Wednesday 21 - Sunday 25 August. Some 66 riders from 21 countries will compete for medals.

Horsesdaily's Mary Phelps is asking for your help. "Be careful for what you wish for because it might just happen. After 3 years of very hard work, lots of lessons, and great training I made it to Europe with four Ponies and a dream to represent the the US and The Classic American Shetland ponies in the sport of Combined Driving. Now the dream has come true, we have been selected."

Congratulations Harry and Meghan
