Team Equine International Airfreight was comprised of Robert Palm riding Jaybee Vibrant, Jessica Pateman riding Celso, Rhys Stones riding Kanntador, and Nick Taliana riding Adesman. The team completed four rounds of competition with just 6 penalties to their name, finishing one penalty ahead of Domeland on 7 faults, and Newhaven Park in third on 10 faults.
