21 year old British rider Holly Woodhead has surprised herself by shooting into the lead at the Longines FEI European Eventing Championships during the morning session of dressage at Blair Castle
The last words she heard as she rode into the arena were from her groom saying "Go nail it" and she certainly did
We caught up with Holly, who is riding as an individual, after her test on her 11 year old chestnut gelding which scored 31.70, well ahead of the current second placed rider Thibaut Vallette on Qing du Briot (36.80) riding for France and British team member Kitty King on Persimmon (36.90) in third
