they announced that there was a hold and there's only one on the course now on the live stream I think? running 8 mins behind, but not sure what has caused the hold.

horse didn't look 100% getting up.
Is this Daines' horse we're talking about or have I missed one?

I don’t think we’ve seen Denis Mesples and OREGON DE LA VIGNE - according to the start list he was to start between Tim Price and Lydia Hannon.

In general the course is riding well, but its very holding & some horses not travelling at all. Louise potts was doing a lot of swimming in the saddle with no response so she very wisely retired.
Of course then you have horses who are just bouncy and enthusiastic and launching themselves, like clare abbots (fell at the bullfinch, horse misread fence) and michael jung were sam just went into turbo mode

That's what I'm wondering too, we didn't see any of his round but Tim Price did complete and Lydia was due to start after the French rider.
Lydia's horse is a bit :O
