nice to see so many of the forum peeps there but for those that want to know, Oli withdrew second horse 'just in case' as didnt trot upgreat wednesday and ground still firm.
allegedly quite few sore tonight the trot up may be interesting but no rumours re leading pair.
Never seen chris king ride better, but he will need to be good tomorow. Tina said that pint one of a penalty between her and chris is going to haunt her. love that horse though!
Chris and Jay halim leading the pairs but full results of that not up when i left.
was there all day so ask away if you have any particular horses or riders but i will only be online for another couple hours at most

 

[kerilli]

Brace yourself then!
what happened to Oli on his first horse, please? how did Tor Brewer look (naughty flippin' pony stopping), she's a friend of mine and a very good, undervalued rider imho.
where did the French horse have his problem?
What happened to Jonty Evans and Cregwarrior?
Any stops at fence 3? i always think it's a big challenge, coming so early.
Thankyou.

oli retired first one at water jump after a run out at the brush. french horse stopped at second last after hitting middle part when up on clock only got 4 time pens with the stop! jonty jumped the houses at 11/12 and didnt feel creagwarrior usual self then had a run out so pulled up. thinks maybe badminton took more out of hrse than he thought.
sacha pemble hit 3 hrad on second ride and retired there. tor lookked great as always til horse started getting a bit tired and green but think she completed though had couple stops one naughty early on then another towards end

[tigers_eye]

What happened to Lucy Holliday?

 

[sunflower]

How did Sascha Pemble get away with finishing on her first horse when it clearly didn't look sound after her fall one from home?

Why did Polly Stockton retire her second?

Is Louisa Brassey alright after her fall?

How come Mary King always looks so happy - even when she's just retired?

How lovely was the Dun horse!!!!!

 

[Weezy]

Ohhhhhhhhhhh that Dun *swoon* I eyed it up on Thursday when it went to do its dressage - my dream horse!

 

[lorenababbit]

lucy had to compulsory retire i think after several stops, louisa brassey has suspected broken collar bone, polly said westwood joker went lame dont know how bad, the dun is lovely and so is mary and sacha was less far from home than AT was and the horse didnt feel lame when she got back on it.

 

[sunflower]

Puppy here

*bounces up and down like a crazy fool*

ZOMG!! THAT bootiful dun "Dunaguer" AND "Brief Respite" have the same Daddy as...... STAR!!

How almost did I fall over when I discovered THAT?!

I have owned her for over ten years and never seen a relative of hers in the flesh. Today I saw two!!

 

[sunflower]

*Sunflower again* Puppy is indeed like a crazy person! *puppy cackles in the background* don't worry - we'll sedate her with more wine

Also, did anyone claim the poor dog that was found on course. We saw him about 4 hours after he was first found and he was lovely

 

[kerilli]

ooh, who was the dun by, please? thankyou.

 

[sunflower]

*puppy here*

Augermann

As is...

 

[Tempi]

Just wanted to say ive got everything crossed for Squire Tat, hes going to be assessed at the vets this afternoon.......My thoughts go to the owner, and to DL who has lost his only 3* ride

 

[KatB]

What happened PG? Fingers crossed.

 

[Tempi]

He blew a tendon after the last fence, so he definately wont event again

 

[KatB]

Eek

Unfortunately all too common. Fingers crossed for decent prognosis.

 

[madgirl]

thanks for that lucretia, so wish I had been there this weekend usually go but had a tournament, so pleased with the results.
Fav horses in 1st and 2nd!

 

[lifeslemons]

grrr I wanted to be there. Couple of years ago Daniel was predicted to be the next WFP etc with a mega rich owner, so a shame for him. But I guess Chris proves it all goes round in circles, and the hardworking always get there in the end.

Oh no

another horse to break down, how unfortunate

but that horse did race as a 2 year old so nothings as strong as it could be after theyve raced at that age.

 

[Tempi]

exactly, it takes a realy hold x country aswell.

Prognosis is that hes on box rest for 3months, then 2yrs off work. Adel is going to keep him.
