Andreas thrilled with his silver medal. He hugs Danish team trainer Rudolf Zeilinger. Esben Möller, manager of Blue Hors stud, watches and smiles.

Isabell entered the ring in walk on long reins, which she then picked up while doing a rising trot to get her horse together before entering the big ring for her kur.

The photographers got a visit from the biggest moth I've ever seen. With its wings spread, the creature had a width of almost 10 centimeters. Look at that face.Yuk!
