The remaining 10 include the UAE<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s 21-year-old Omar Adbul Aziz Al Marzooqi, who picked up just a single time fault when last to go with Enjoy de la Mure, plus the quickest four-faulters.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For Epaillard, today was a lot more enjoyable than Saturday<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s team medal-decider in which France claimed bronze.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span>It was a lot of pressure in the team, I was last to go and playing for a medal and you don<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>t want to disappoint anyone! Today the weight was off my shoulders and I rode differently, more relaxed. Also, my mare (Dubai du Cedre) is every day more relaxed and it helped me to have more precision. But it was not so easy because it&#8217;s not a big, big, course, it&#8217;s more delicate and a bit open which is not the best for me. I like when it&#8217;s a bit short (distances) with my mare, but I&#8217;m really happy to be to be in the final tomorrow!\u201d, said the man who, with the same 11-year-old mare, claimed individual bronze at last year<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s European Championship and runner-up spot at this year<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s FEI World Cup Final.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Excellent day<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, it was an excellent day for the Irish when Shane Sweetnam finished second with James Kann Cruz and Daniel Coyle third with Legacy leaving them both with a great draw for tomorrow. The Irish team came into the Games full of medal-hopes, but ended up in a disappointing seventh place. Today, however, their flag was flying high once again.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It was important to be quick today so that if a fence fell you could still make the cut with four faults. Posting his clear round in 73.35 seconds, Sweetnam and James Kann Cruz clinched it easily.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>He left a fence on the floor in Friday<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s team final, but today there was no mistake with his 11-year-old grey gelding. <span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span>We didn&#8217;t really have the rub of the green on Friday actually\u201d, he said. <span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span>When I watched the video of my round it was like he just breathed on that fence. But that<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s just show jumping for you. You have to have a little bit of luck, and today we had it on our side\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Spectacular<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Coyle has been spectacular from the outset. His mare Legacy hasn\u2019t touched a pole through three rounds of jumping and she was still bouncing around the 14-fence course today.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don&#8217;t know what to say anymore!\u201d, he said. \u201cShe was really fresh again. She&#8217;s 14 now, but her mind doesn&#8217;t think it! Obviously she&#8217;s feeling great, and in the warm up already I felt that. I was expecting her to be a little tired, but then when she was fresh, I thought, okay, I need to change a little bit how I want to ride her today otherwise I&#8217;ll end up making a mistake\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Irishman wasn\u2019t feeling at his best himself because he had food-poisoning yesterday and was ill all night. \u201cI was under a lot of pressure today in all the wrong ways! But I was just trying to get through the finish with a good score, because after this week my mare deserves to be in the final no matter what. So I would have been disappointed if she wasn&#8217;t there\u201d, he said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Netherlands\u2019 Harrie Smolders and Uricas van de Kattevennen finished fourth ahead of Switzerland<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s Martin Fuchs with Leone Jei and Steve Guerdat on Dynamix de Belheme in fifth and sixth places. The Swiss failed to qualify for the team final, so today was redemption day.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reigning<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Reigning European champion Guerdat blamed himself for his less-than-satisfactory performance last Thursday. \u201cMy mare doesn\u2019t have that much experience even though she<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s 11, she hasn\u2019t jumped so many really big championships so she can be a little bit spooky which may have affected her the first day. I didn\u2019t give her enough confidence, so I tried to stay a bit calmer today and trust her even though it wasn\u2019t that easy prior to the class, but I must say she gave me a great feeling at the first jump and I felt okay, she<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s back to normal, so I could concentrate on giving her an easy ride and not overdo things like I did the first day\u201d, he explained.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Defending individual Olympic champion, Great Britain<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s Ben Maher, finished 28th with his mare Dallas Vegas Batilly who sent the wall tumbling to the ground three fences from home for four faults. He was relieved that his time was fast enough to get him through to tomorrow<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s finale.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like to keep it exciting!\u201d, he said with a laugh afterwards. \u201cWe are in and that&#8217;s all the matters. I don&#8217;t know what happened there. She felt amazing today but she was very, very lively outside already this morning and she was playing a bit in the warm up, but when I got in the ring, she honestly was jumping as good, if not better, than the other days.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Trying to understand why his horse seemed to mis-read the fence she demolished he said, \u201cI guess there&#8217;s a big shadow by the wall there now. She just rolled around the corner, and as she took off it just took her by surprise I think. Luckily I&#8217;m a little older and experienced and we made a quick recovery to get home\u201d, said the man who helped take team gold for his country in Friday<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s Jumping team final.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s going to be a fascinating final day tomorrow when those top-30 return to settle the individual medal placings. The action begins at 10.00 with Germany<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s Philipp Weishaupt and Zineday first to go. And although today<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s result has decided the starting order, they all begin again on a zero score, so it\u2019s a whole new day and a whole new competition with plenty more big fences to jump before the Paris 2024 Olympic Individual Jumping title is decided.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>QUOTES:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sweden<\/strong><strong><span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span><\/strong><strong>s Henrik von Eckermann<\/strong> who jumped clear today with King Edward &#8211; \u201cHe has so much power and he normally grows into the championships. I mean this is not the first one he does! And he always comes out better and better every day.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Brazil<\/strong><strong><span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span><\/strong><strong>s Rodrigo Pessoa<\/strong> talking about competing at his eighth Olympic Games, this one with the background of the Chateau de Versailles \u2013 \u201cEvery Games is different and they are all special but this one is extra special because of the backdrop, and the atmosphere and not one empty seat! And you have to kind of pinch yourself to get going, because it&#8217;s really incredible &#8211; the fans really turned up and the sport this week has been incredible &#8211; it&#8217;s really special to compete in a place like this. It&#8217;s unique. It&#8217;s a once in a lifetime opportunity, and I<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>m so happy that we got to do it!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Frenchman <\/strong><strong>Julien Epaillard<\/strong> talking about his horse Dubai du Cedre \u2013 \u201cI can ask her to jump a house! She<span dir=\"RTL\">\u2019<\/span>s always tries, she fights, she has such a big heart and so much scope. My biggest problem is to know how to manage her energy in the beginning of the track, whether she will be with me or fighting with me.
