GB wins Eventing Team Silver
Zara Phillips in action
Celebration as British Eventing Team take home medals

Congratulations go to the British Eventing Team, who won Olympic silver yesterday at Greenwich Park.

The team, consisting of William Fox-Pitt, Mary King, Zara Phillips, Tina Cook and Nicola Wilson, held off New Zealand, who took bronze, and came second place to Germany in a nail-biting final.

Tina Cook, who jumped clear with one time-fault on Miners Frolic, said: "The team had done so well, it was so close. We could have got silver or nothing and that would have been awful."

She added: "Gold would have been brilliant, silver is fantastic."

BVA urges 'continued vigilance' over bluetongue

The British Veterinary Association (BVA) has urged vigilance following a concerning rise in Bluetongue (BTV) cases in sheep and cattle.

In a recent statement, the BVA noted that members are reporting more severe clinical signs and higher mortality rates than in previous years.

'We know that farm vets are working hard to support farmers and animals affected by this outbreak, during what is an extremely difficult time for all involved,' they stated. 'Continued vigilance to identify disease early is vital and vaccination remains the best way of protecting animals from this disease.'
