Late change to Australia's Nations Cup Team
There's been a late change to the Australian team competing at the FEI Furusiyya Nations Cup Final happening this weekend, with London Olympian Julia Hargreaves withdrawing.
Jessica Brown riding Casco comes into the line-up and joins Edwina Tops-Alexander (captain), Jamie Kermond and Scott Keach in the four member team.
It is a big moment for the 25 year old who left Australian shores earlier this year bound for Europe where she has been gaining experience at events in Germany and The Netherlands. Before departing Australia Jess enjoyed success on the Australian World Cup circuit, most notably winning the Equestrian Grand Final at EQUITANA and a host of other minor placings including second at the Boneo CSI1*-W and third at this season's Sydney Royal CSI2*-W.
Jamie Winning will accompany the team to Barcelona and compete as an individual.
