WEXFORD TEEN BERTRAM Allen remains in the medal hunt as the Longines World Cup Final reaches its climax in Las Vegas.
A single mistake cost the 19-year-old his place in Friday night’s jump-off but he still sits third overall ahead of Sunday’s finale.
Allen set the early pace on Thursday with a brilliant opening leg on board Molly Malone, but relinquished his overnight lead when he caught the last rail of a triple combination for four faults.
It meant he had to settle for seventh place, allowing Switzerland’s Steve Guerdat and Richard Fellers of America to leapfrog him in the overall standings.
