When the young girl fell off at mattingly they had to stop the event until there was a first aider in situ before re starting.If the medics are involved with the fall the they won't be able to re start until they are freed up.

Yeah it was the rail into the sunken road. Poor girl. Hopefully they just need to take her for precautions seeing as she was unconscious for so long.

the problem is theres got to be a certain amout on ambulances and paramedics in attendance so if they are busy or have left to take someone to the hospital or helicopter then everything has to wait until they are back in position. it doesnt necessarily mean the injury is worse because of the amount of time taken to start the course back up. sorry for awful grammar i am writing on my phone!

they're off again in a moment so assume they don't wait for the air ambulance to return, was Ingrid taken off in the air ambulance as well after her fall?

There are usually about 2 medics and a para at each fence is I remember rightly. They'll get started pretty quickly.
Poles on top of the house one assumes are radio/satellite masts

Friend there says a second air ambulance has arrived so I guess that is why they can restart. Every wish to Elizabeth and I hope the others on course get home safely
