Fall for Piggy at the sunken road - didn't look nice

 

[Sags_Deer]

Whooop go Francis another local rider to me.

 

[doratheexplorer]

that looked like a horrid fall for Piggy, glad she is up and chatting to the stewards... come on Francis, fingers crossed he goes round safe, would like him to do well, he is always knocking on the door...

 

[SonnysHumanSlave]

looked like she hit her head with a thud, think the air jacket did take the impact though.


Gonna be lots of bruised competitors today.

 

[mypegasus]

Hope that Francis has a good round

That was not a nice fall at all - she didn't half clout the lip on the way down.

 

[Laafet]

Anyone know what happened to that horse that went to Horspital - Desert Island?

 

[SonnysHumanSlave]

can the riders on the course hear things on the commentary as they go round?

 

[PeanutButterDragon]

Great start for Frances Whittington Hope it continues!

He was PTS There is a thread in Comp Riders

 

[Laafet]

I guess they can - it is pretty loud - but then as you are concentrating you might not notice it that much, I certainly didn't used to notice it until I came off or had a stop!

Yes, sadly Desert Island has been put down,

Go on Tina, really hope she has a good round. Miners Frolic is a classy wee ned.

They could hear things over the PA but don't know if you are that focused on your round if it registers. Someone earlier said they didn't notice the crowds and just had tunnel vision between the ropes.

I am soo impressed by Francis's beautifull soft riding!! Poetry in motion! Why is this guy not on all the teams?!

 

[brighteyes]

Right all, off for SJ practice. Enjoy the rest of it!

Byeeeee!

I just went out, jumped mine, fell off, got back on jumped a few more, came back in and you never even missed me!

Yeah i suppose, just wondered if they could hear where people were coming off elsewhere on he course.... as i wouldnt want to.

 

[PeanutButterDragon]

Miner's Frolic has to be the best looking horse around, he's just stunning! Come on Tina!

 

[doratheexplorer]

So far so good for Francis, lovely fluid round from him and Sir Percival...
Ooo Tinas off, hope they have a lovely round...
