How chuffed is Nick at that horse. Lovely!

Finally get to see clare at fence 18... Oh no and back to mary.

 

[elliebrewer98]

Nick is so heartwarming!

 

[armchair_rider]

Was that not no.85?
Clare is no.86

They were confused.

Apparently they were also wrong, she's still going- just cleared the quarry

 

[starryeyed]

Mary you are WONDERFUL!!

 

[HihoGinger]

What a save!

 

[only_me]

Well sat mary!

 

[apachediamond]

Fabulous! Well ridden

 

[Hedgewitch13]

OMG Mary!!

 

[frostyfingers]

Eeek! Scary Mary.

 

[debsflo]

Omg Mary...

 

[teapot]

Oh Mary :biggrin3:

 

[armchair_rider]

Well done Mary. That was... creative. Smart horse too

 

[3Beasties]

love Nicks reaction!

Blimey Mary was lucky then!!

 

[angelish]

nice of mary to give IC a nice cuddle round the head there !

 

[MegaBeast]

Loved Nick Gauntlet's obvious delight as he finished, so nice to see.

Wow at Mary!!!!

 

[only_me]

Show us an irish rider please, clare should be at huntsmans

 

[HihoGinger]

Oh

 

[Hedgewitch13]

Oh dear Mary has retired

 

[frostyfingers]

What a shame, perhaps knocked that more stuffing than we thought out of IC.

 

[HihoGinger]

Show us an irish rider please, clare should be at huntsmans

You may get your wish now!

 

[apachediamond]

Oh no

 

[debsflo]

Mary's retired

 

[armchair_rider]

Mary retiring after stop at Mirage Pond. Shame that. Mind you what with the dressage error and the owl hole you'd start to think it wasn't her year anyway

 

[Dunlin]

I do worry watching Mary go, sensible decision I feel.

 

[teapot]

Told you she was still going!

 

[Jericho]

Loved Nick Gauntlet's obvious delight as he finished, so nice to see.

Did I see blood on Nicks horses mouth (left hand side as he finished)? Nick looked like he was trying to cover it and groom wiped something away. Hope its OK and not from the bit?

 

[Befney3]

Gutted to hear Mary's retired but better safe than sorry.

I wondered the same...

Although we got lots of nick patting his horse and mary walking away,.

So far have seen clare over fence 18, 23 and the last 2. And it sounded like a fantastic round for her first time!!
And she is into 16th, excellent pity didnt get to see much of her xc.
