sorry, that sounded more grumpy than I intended! obviously can't multitask! ;)
 
Do you think Pippa should have withdrawn her second ride as he was down the dressage leaderboard? Personally I don't given how many were waitlisted.

I do see your point, but as she said she didnt think she should ride if she wasn't feeling 110% which i think is fair. However it is a tough one to call.

I think she was right to do so. It takes guts and serious concentration/determination to jump that track and going out there with any doubts in the mind would be futile and not the safest. Given that the horse was not in a competitive position why run on hard ground for the sake of it?? There are always people on the waitlist but once the comp starts the waitlist is irrelevant and IMO is not worth considering when deciding to run or not
