just call me thick but what happened there? The final scoreboard is a disaster look at the amount of non completions. Add it to the equally fab (NOT) xc results from Luhmuhlen and you have to wonder what is going on in horse trials these days.......any explanations welcome!

I wonder if people are starting to wonder if it's too late to change xc designer for 2012?! On the other hand I do like the fact that it most certainly ain't a dressage competition lately.
 
I wos there. saw lots of horses skip round a 'very' skinny fence, no harm to horses, embaressed professionals i think!!! Some horses landed very badly in the second water, but with the brush in, and imo saved some nasty falls because horses were backing off but the momentum was taking them down the bank and they were leaving legs all over the place, but were able to brush through it. According to a reliable source the 2 bad falls were as a result of too fast and a tired horse. it was interesting to see the CCI and CIC running side by side because you could see the horses in the CIC were much greener than the CCI [well some of them anyway] Isn't it amazing that Andrew is going to take that 9 year old to Burghley!
