Badminton thread!

[Cheiro1]

Viktoria retires too! Show-Jumping is going to be light tomorrow!

 

[only_me]

Lol "that was pretty dam good" love commentary!

 

[armchair_rider]

Pascal le Roy finishes and goes second. A mere 37 seconds over the time allowed

 

[Dunlin]

Blimey, I think the last time I remember Badminton being so tricky with so many refusals, retirements and incidents was way back in 1992 which had appalling weather and was a serious xc test.

 

[9tails]

Yeah, they may send her out, only_me.

 

[only_me]

Nice to have another finisher though

I think there's been a wet one since then but I can't remember when.

 

[9tails]

The weather and ground conditions look absolutely awful.

 

[apachediamond]

Eeek Harry Meade, fab to see him back though

 

[starryeyed]

Everything crossed for Harry!

 

[Cheiro1]

So nice to see Harry back on a horse

 

[Dunlin]

Blimey I had no idea that Harry was already back up and about let alone at this level, what a feat!!

 

[Cheiro1]

Nice to see Paul Simms get home. His horse looks shattered though!

 

[armchair_rider]

Paul Sims finishing. Interesting that it seems to mostly be the lower profile people finishing - presumably more desperate to get a completion?

 

[Dunlin]

Anyone know what breeding Paul Sims horse is? Tired boy and so honest.

Nice bit of PC riding by Andrew Hefferman

 

[9tails]

Gemma oohing, ahhing and squealing!

 

[armchair_rider]

Oh ouch, Micheal Owen trips coming up step out of lake (alternative) and retires. Hope the horse will be ok.

 

[only_me]

Wow he was quick!

 

[Dunlin]

Yeah I really like Gemma's commentary! But Ian is hilarious "oooo have a burger, why not" hahaha

 

[BlairandAzria]

Love her correcting mike though! Haha

 

[9tails]

Giovanni's horse is going like a steam train!

 

[only_me]

That martingale is pretty useless for giovanni

 

[kassieg]

Im literally willing harry round !! hope he stays safe

 

[Dunlin]

hahaha Harry's horse gets the Huntsmans corner flag temporarily stuck in his tail!

Who is this rider in Beige that has a horse as fast a fighter jet? It's making me nervous!!

 

[armchair_rider]

Harry trotting into the quarry. Nice jump though. Looks like he'll get home in reasonable time.

 

[bananaloaf]

Well my picture is still rather "psychedelic"! Can't see a thing!

 

[BlairandAzria]

You can hear Gemma willing Harry on!
Think the beige is Giovanni ?!

 

[9tails]

Mine is alright, babanaloaf. Try coming out and going back in.

 

[Dunlin]

Lovely round, well done Harry!

Oooo thanks BlairandAzria, you're right, it is, he's FAST!

 

[starryeyed]

Well done Harry!
