Russia and Uzbekistan trailed behind with 42 and 60 faults respectively. There were four countries - Poland, Russia, Uzbekistan and Israel - left for round two but it quickly became a two-horse race as Poland, carrying 13 faults, and Israel, carrying 15, moved clear of their rivals. Six nations lined up for the contest with Azerbaijan and Kyrgystan being eliminated in the first round. "We are happy and this is historic - it’s the first time we will have Israel at the Olympics!" "But these guys, they made it, all of them are magnificent, they’ve all done a great job and the second round was perfect! "We were optimistic but there was a lot of pressure this afternoon," said Alperovich. The foursome of Daniel Bluman, Ashlee Bond, Elad Yaniv and Dani G Waldman overhauled their Polish rivals in the latter stages of the contest and Israel team sports manager Amichai Alperovich was delighted.

Israel will make an historic debut at next year's Olympic Games in Tokyo after booking their ticket with a Group C Jumping Qualifier victory at Maxima Park in Moscow.
