'Spectacular!' - Team GB claim dressage bronze as Dujardin wins fifth Olympic medal
The equestrian drama is set to continue over the next week as the world's best horses and riders go head to head in the eventing dressage and jumping competitions.
There are high hopes for Team GB after Charlotte Dujardin's double medal success in the team and individual dressage saw her win a record sixth Olympic medal, making her the most decorated female British Olympian in history.
With the dressage wrapped up, equestrian fans are now set for an exciting few days of eventing and jumping as Team GB once again go in search of gold.
The eventing competition format is contested on both team and individual platforms with the medals decided on August 2.
Those aiming for individual glory will need to tackle the dressage, cross-country and showjumping phases across four days to receive their final penalty score – the lowest score wins.
In the showjumping events, competitors will be taking to the tracks, consisting of 12 to 15 obstacles, to navigate the course, including at least one double and a treble.
The horse and rider teams must finish will incur penalties for knocking down rails throughout the course.
