    Showjumping on today. Two rounds decide who win the Olympic medals.

    So far 35 riders of jumped and there's only one clear round - Jessica Kuerten of Ireland.

    A Kiwi is in second with 1 fault, and 3 people tie for third with 4 faults a Belgian, a Dutchman and an Irishman - Cian O'Connor.

    Great stuff

    Still 11 riders to complete their first round.

    Ireland's Jessica Kuerten is in joint first place with Britain's Nick Skelton after a clear opening round in the individual show jumping event at the Athens Olympics.

    Kuerten, on board Castle Forbes Maike, was the first rider to jump a clear round.

    Cian O'Connor and his mount Waterford Crystal are in joint third position after incurring four faults.

    Kevin Babington on Carling King had eight faults and has qualified to ride again later this evening when the medals will be decided.
