Badminton XC!

[scats]

Ooh bad fall!

 

[milliepops]

Oh jeez that was unlucky

 

[Wishfilly]

Oh no Piggy! Looking like a super round until that point.

Yes. everyone jokes about having 6000 owners but that's def the case It's nice to feel like you have a bit of an extra connection though, as a mere bystander and they've been really great on FB, loved jonty's little videos leading up to Badminton. i know it was controversial but I think they've handled it well.

as much as it was controversial, I also don't see how it's any worse than the race horse owners who advertise for people to buy into syndicates or buy a leg of a racehorse.

I take back what i said about piggy french - shes just had a fall- into the lake - she didnt count the strides before jumping into the water

 

[only_me]

:O

Poor piggy!! That was very unlucky, just caught a knee on way up?

 

[sasquatch]

glad to see both up and on their feet.

 

[Experienced equestri]

I know -I reckon she didnt count the stride -she banged herself what a shame

Nothing like a bit of judgmental critism...!

Unlucky, not a mistake. Horse took off then hesitated slightly. Was a perfectly ok distance from Fence to take off from imo.

 

[sasquatch]

oooh Jonelle, if she hadn't had that mistake earlier and had to go the long route she'd have got inside the time!

very impressive.

Um, yes, she did. Horse went to put down again and tripped over the top of it.

 

[Experienced equestri]

yes she did shame eh? still theres next time -

 

[Wishfilly]

Well done Jonelle! Making the time look possible! She's going to be hard to catch!

 

[milliepops]

As if you'd get to 4* and not stride out combinations

 

[scats]

Nothing to do with her not counting strides. Horse put down onto the fence..

 

[only_me]

yes she did shame eh? still theres next time -

What are you on about?!

 

[only_me]

As if you'd get to 4* and not stride out combinations

Nah, just wing it. More interesting for spectators
And heart stopping for fence judges

 

[sasquatch]

Harry Meade should be starting soon too

 

[JFTDWS]

Maybe the horse didn't count the strides. Shame on her, not giving him an abacus in his stable, and sending him out to walk the course himself.

 

[scats]

Good grief, that was a leap!

 

[Wishfilly]

The ground by the shogun ditch is looking quite cut up now. I hope it doesn't cause problems for anyone.

 

[JFTDWS]

Harry Meade should be starting soon too

Always a good thing - fingers crossed for a good day for him!

 

[sasquatch]

another fall, hope both are okay as that did look sore

 

[Experienced equestri]

apologies

 

[milliepops]

the sunlight is really changing all these combinations isn't it.

Wonder how a horse would count a stride, 4 feet down or the slight pause in gait?

 

[sasquatch]

Always a good thing - fingers crossed for a good day for him!

can't help but love Harry

It really is!
