That looked like ben was suddenly v tired - he definitely doesn’t look rider on form as normal

Ben seems more knackered than mulry on finishing. I hope he’s ok

 

[milliepops]

Ahhhh Ben!!
Good save

 

[scats]

Euro Prince is a cracking horse, love him.

Ben looks knackered.

 

[AmieeT]

I thought he was a goner! So glad he stayed- Shame about the penalties.

 

[only_me]

Oh no!!

And such a fantastic round till then. Poor clare

 

[milliepops]

yeah poor ben didn't have the easiest ride all round but must be so great to get round all the same. Shame for Clare

 

[scats]

Oh what a shame!

 

[AmieeT]

Poor Clare, that was the makings of a cracking round!

 

[HashRouge]

God listening to Ben talk about his horse made me tear up a bit! What a lovely bloke!

 

[milliepops]

whoops, Louise

Poor Claire! Love watching EP cross country. Really liked what Ben said about mr mulry

I’d love to see Oliver get the grand slam this weekend

 

[Crazy_cat_lady]

How lovely what Ben said about his horse!

Just asked my friend I'm going on a hack with in a bit if we can delay it til a little later so i can watch Michael and Sam as he's one of my favourite riders to watch.

Not a massive fan of Oliver.

Hmm not liking louise harwoods round. Not travelling at and a bit scared watching them


Ets. She’s retired, definitely the right decision today. Lots of swimming in the saddle to that point

It is, and it will be really interesting to see if the ground dries up and makes it faster all round.

 

[rosiesowner]

Louise and mr Potts putting me on the edge of my seat today, he just doesn’t look positive at all

Yeah bit unusual for them. You could see that last run out coming miles away.

My thoughts exactly-such a shame though

 

[rosiesowner]

Kate Honey’s horse is really attractive, lovely looking creature! AHHH that peck on landjng!

 

[milliepops]

My thoughts exactly-such a shame though

yes.her dressage didn't look like the most comfortable ride this year either shame.

 

[rosiesowner]

Just me or did he just lose a shoe?

I never like her rounds to be honest, definitely best decision to retire today.

 

[milliepops]

she seems to always have gigantic horses and she's so so tiny.

They’re always a bit strung out but today was an extreme version! Saddle swimming lol

 

[milliepops]

Whee! Quick thinking there

 

[milliepops]

Hoping Alan has a good ride, he was so friendly and helpful when I was eventing Millie I always root for him

I’m going to have to catch up on all the action later on - am currently sat in a rehearsal for a concert I’ve been drafted in for after a fellow oboist broke her wrist abc they needed a sub.

Normally enjoy watching and chatting on this thread.

Will look at a fence analysis if the eliminations refusals etc later on.

Will dip in and out of the thread as and when I can.

Enjoy watching everyone

The ground looks ok on tv but must actually be v holding for horses, some not travelling or just jumping as cleanly. And coming home knackered!
