Milo finished an amazing 12th at Burghley after having just one fence down on what proved to be very influential show jumping track. He rose up 52 places from his position after the dressage, an incredible feat!!
He was an absolute star and showed no signs of what used to be his trademark of dropping one front leg over a fence.
He cleared the post box bogey fence and then just clipped behind the top rail of the upright into the last combination.
Whilst it would have been great to have sneaked into the top 10 we are absolutely delighted. He is a brilliant jumping machine and Mark is without doubt still at the very top of his game.
Mark's cross country riding yesterday was a masterclass in how to ride with pace and rhythm and bring a horse home well within its limits. milo's recovery time was very quick, a great testament to Mark's fitness programme
Milo has now completed all his 4 4*s without a single cross country jumping penalty!
Assuming he continues to recover well from this weekend he will head to Pau in the south of France to finish his season with another 4*.
