Kiwi eventer Clarke Johnstone launches Olympic campaign from Land Rover Horse of the year show

It's a Tokyo focused line-up helping to kick off the southern hemisphere's largest equestrian showpiece the 2020 Land Rover Horse of the Year Show.

The trio of Olympic greats Blyth Tait, Jock Paget and Clarke Johnstone have announced they'll all be competing on the country's biggest equestrian stage but only one is pushing for a seat on the Kiwi eventing team to Tokyo.

While Tait and Paget boast five Olympic medals between them, it's New Zealand's top Olympic eventing home-based hopeful Clarke Johnstone who will be gunning to qualify his second mount Aces High, from the competition's four-star eventing competition in Hastings in two weeks' time.
