Just after half 4

 

[Experienced equestri]

eliminated herself -yet to be clarified though -she dropped her reins . William fox pitt on now

 

[JFTDWS]

wouldn't call that a dirty stop really?it's a hell of an angle so really easy to glance off it.

Miscommunication, didn't quite get the idea - let's not blame the horses, who are pretty much heroic out there.

WFP is also one that might make time, he always seems to have an inbuilt minute marker lol

Paul Tapner, Oli T and Mark Todd on their second horses and Jonelle Price are still to go too

 

[rosiesowner]

Nice to see pimms back at this level

 

[sasquatch]

WFP really does make Pimms look tiny lol

Awesome, thanks! I'd better go soon in that case!

True! And wfp who never looks as though going quickly looks quick today!

 

[Experienced equestri]

Yes -I know now -william fox pitt doing ok

 

[Northern Hare]

Agreed. Didn’t look dirty at all!

Think she’s eliminated anyway now after jumping twice

Looks like a really super horse - really good jumps into and through the lake and a shame about the glance off on the third element. Good news that she’s not eliminated!

 

[Ambers Echo]

Georgie hasn't been pulled off the course yet. So perhaps you can rejump A after all?

 

[sasquatch]

True! And wfp who never looks as though going quickly looks quick today!

and you never know, someone may just surprise you too lol

 

[Experienced equestri]

wfp had a stop & retired

 

[milliepops]

nooooo william!

 

[AmieeT]

Gutted for WFP!

 

[teapot]

Has anyone noticed that the riders who do the BBC course walk bits then have problems at the fence? Happened a few times over the last few years. Coincidence?

 

[sasquatch]

surprised to see that from WFP, sad to see them retire.

those logs seem to really be catching people out now, I wonder if it is the shadows changing.

 

[JFTDWS]

WFP really does make Pimms look tiny lol

WFP makes everything look tiny!

 

[only_me]

Wow that was a bit naughty for WFP!

New position of the shadows & crowd having a big impact there.

At least the jump judges didn’t get trampled lol

 

[Ambers Echo]

That was a disappointingly early finish for WFP

 

[Experienced equestri]

has she not ? maybe they did give her another chance then

They'll have to only pick people who haven't got 4* rides next year

 

[Wishfilly]

Shame to see William retire. I agree that the light must've changed there, as it was riding much more easily earlier in the day.

Glad to see frangible pins working and helping the riders.

 

[Experienced equestri]

yes very

 

[Experienced equestri]

I think clare balding does a very good interview

 

[rosiesowner]

Ah poor William, bloooooooomin hell thank god for frangible fences

 

[Experienced equestri]

Yes i agreee theyre the best

 

[milliepops]
