Badminton XC thread

[Lizzie2106]

H&C on twitter saying she was unconcious for 10 mins but now awake, air ambulance leaving shortly.

Really hope they're right and she'll be fine- very worrying.

There was. Really long pause at burghley xc when I went the other year rider taken to hospital but ok as far as I remember. Can't remember who t was now

There was a big hold when Dee Kennedy fell at the quarry at Badminton a few years ago and was air lifted out, but she was fine.

Must have been, I thought she had hurt it, but it wasn't serious

Text from a friend there, sounds like rotational with horse landing on her, helicopter just taken off.

Think there was a frangible pin at that fence, wonder if it deployed?

Claire Lewis yelled 'Come on Sid!' It's so nice to know other riders talk to their horses the way I have a habit of doing - even at Badders

E Power was unconscious for 10 minutes, her Dad has confirmed. She is now awake and OK.

think Flora particularly has done frigging well to just carry on, what a first timer. Glad to c Claire going well too.

At least I had time to eat my lunch with my family quickly

Fairly long hold for Nicola Malcolm and McFly at Burghley last year.
