Oh, there's a hold on course now

[Chloe_GHE]

is tony warr riding this year?...

 

[vallin]

Are you allowed any colour breeches you like?

Isn't it something to do with the army/italian cavalry type thing?

 

[teapot]

Love Mister Pooh

 

[OneInAMillion]

I find IK scary to watch XC. Hope she is OK after her fall but after the way the horse slipped so badly twice imo she should have slowed up a bit

No, Susan Bordone rides in her military uniform. I love the breeches though

 

[andraste]

My OH is watching the football. Can someone take pity on me and tell me how Ingrid came unstuck and where?

 

[milo'n'molly]

You'd have to join the Italian Military to get them!!

You will have to join the Italian Air Force as well. Good Luck!

Totally agree!!!

 

[jules89]

Going into Huntsman's - at the gate.

No he was quite a way down the waitlist

 

[Supertrooper]

She fell coming over the gate in huntsman close, TBH was going way too fast coming to a upright gate. She's sitting up, poss leg injury. Horse looked fine

 

[dafthoss]

ingrid seems quite chatty with the paramedics so fingers crossed shes not to badly hurt

 

[Hacked_Off]

She seems ok thank god

 

[milo'n'molly]

hold on course going for a pee and a drinks top up

 

[Supertrooper]

Yes, good to see her sitting up, well done medics

 

[Jane_Lou]

Was it Ingrid that had a fall at the last as WEG when coming very fast at the fence?

 

[MurphysMinder]

Hope the splint on her leg is just a precaution.

 

[PeanutButterDragon]

No he was quite a way down the waitlist

That's a shame - I always enjoy watching him round!

 

[kirstyhen]

She is wearing one, but it would have deflated by now. I doubt it had chance to go off though, as she was still next to the saddle when she was on the deck!

She defo has one on and it hasnt gone off!!!
