Equestrians slip off pace in Hong Kong

05:33 am on 12 August 2008

New Zealand's master horseman Mark Todd admits it wasn't a great day for them at the 3-day cross country, which has more-or-less seen them drop out of medal contention.

All the riders incurred penalties, while Andrew Nicholson had a fall and was eliminated.... It leaves the team in 6th position, while Joe Meyer is the best placed individual in 19th.

Todd says while luck never determines a performance they certainly didn't have any luck helping them today.....

OLY EQUEST GOES

IN : Well yeh...

OUT: ...It goes.
