Ouchhh.

 

[sasquatch]

Two very nasty falls there

Is Michelangelo wearing a martingale?

He has the prettiest face.

Doesn’t look like it! Another shame

 

[Tiddlypom]

Oof, horrid miss there at the owl hole

 

[TheOldTrout]

Isn't there a European championship this year? I expect the selectors are watching with interest.

 

[scats]

What a sweet horse, he looked quite shocked!

 

[sasquatch]

What a sweet horse, he looked quite shocked!

Looked like he completely missed his footing and slipped straight into the jump. Hope they’re both okay

 

[sasquatch]

Actually quite like this Lithuanian rider

 

[rosiesowner]

Ooft Austin sliding at the staircase! Well ridden!!

 

[scats]

That green hat silk is very Kermit the frog coloured!

 

[sasquatch]

Colorado Blue looks very keen

 

[Patterdale]

Another knackered horse

 

[DiNozzo]

I've changed my mind about the stairs.

 

[sasquatch]

Another slip at the steps

 

[scats]

The ground into the staircase is getting pretty cut up.

 

[NocturneNoel]

would've stopped at those stairs but slid right over lol

 

[rosiesowner]

I hope that isn’t classed as a hesitation for Andrew at the staircase, I thought he did a good job at steadying his horse and letting him take in what he needed to do

 

[sasquatch]

Lovely ride from Austin so far

 

[rosiesowner]

would've stopped at those stairs but slid right over lol

Oh, I thought that was him deliberately steadying him up, I think I was paying too much attention to my baguette and not enough to the tv haha

 

[sasquatch]

Oop, unlucky there

 

[NocturneNoel]

Good choice by Andrew, horse isn't into it today

 

[fetlock]

Wish someone would clean that lens

 

[DiNozzo]

I’m glad Aistis completed safely.

 

[sasquatch]

Aistis’ horse is tired, but thought he did well at his first badminton!

 

[scats]

Wish someone would clean that lens

We’ve just said that. It looks like the way my eyes go when I get a migraine.

 

[Tiddlypom]

Austin is making it all look easy

 

[Honey08]

Gosh, I’m not watching it, but it sounds like a lot of falls and withdrawals. It’s already a tiny field. Show jumping will be quick tomorrow!

 

[TheOldTrout]

Oh, I thought that was him deliberately steadying him up, I think I was paying too much attention to my baguette and not enough to the tv haha

You can never pay too much attention to a baguette.

 

[sasquatch]

Austin is storming round

 

[sasquatch]

Brilliant!!
