The wind dropped, the sun came out and so did the crowd for the second day of dressage at the Sydney 3DE.
It was a blustery day for the Two Star dressage class at the Sydney 3DE and the blowing flags and sudden gusts caused a bit of tension in some horses but at the end of the day it was Keira Byrnes on Fox Hill leading on 49.50
It was a beautiful day at the Sydney International Equestrian Centre as the horses trotted up under a blue sky.

Four of the six riders featured in the new book An Eventful Life – Life Stories of Eventing Champions took honours at the Melbourne International Three Day Event this weekend
