Riding high: Cook is still in with a chance of an individual medal to go with the bronze she won with the Great Britain three-day eventing team
Great Britain's three-day eventing team have secured an Olympic bronze medal after the showjumping phase of the equestrian competition in Hong Kong.
Britain had started the day 11.70 points behind second-placed Australia and although Tina Cook enjoyed Britain's only clear round, they never really challenged for the silver medal position.
Germany won the gold medal after finishing the three-day event in first with 166.10 penalty points with Australia (171.20) second and Great Britain third (185.70).
Four of Britain's riders have qualified for the individual jumping final that takes place later today, with Cook's clear round pushing her into tied for sixth in the rankings.
