The Irish team of Dermott Lennon, Peter Charles, Kevin Babington and Cian O'Connor finished 7th overall in the World Equestrian Games showjumping final.

Dermott Lennon on Liscalgot jumped a double clear, Peter Charles on Corrada jumped 8/4, Kevin Babington on Carling King had 8/0, but Cian O'Connor and Waterford Crystal suffered a fall in the first round and were forced to retire.

Three Irish riders - Babington, Charles and Lennon - qualify individually for the Top 25 rider final on Saturday, and are still in contention for medals.
