OFFALY-born Darragh Kenny will now jump in Sunday's Rolex FEI World Cup Final third leg, due to the elimination of the USA's McLain Ward from the startlist.

Kenny, who was first on the reserve list of riders, will jump fourth in the competition with 'Obelix', while Co. Down's Dermott Lennon, who was already qualified for the third leg of the contest, will jump in 16th place with 'Hallmark Elite'.

There will be 29 starters in total for the deciding contest, which is due to start at 12.30pm on Sunday at Geneva's Palexpo Stadium in Switzerland. The competition will be in two rounds, with the best 15 riders going through to the second round later on Sunday afternoon to decide the outright winner.
