Burghley 2018

[only_me]

Wonder why there is still a hold on. Was there anyone else out?

 

[Fools Motto]

Tom Rowland?
edit, just seen he was clear.

 

[DirectorFury]

Tom Rowland is showing as finished with 29.6 XC Time on BDWP. No one seems to be on course or missing from the lists...? <confused>
I think I just heard an announcer say the course is now clear in the background of the current interview so we shall see...

Is Georgie Spence home?

Ets. Yes lol

 

[scats]

Is Georgie Spence home?

I think Georgie’s home.

 

[DirectorFury]

Georgie's home, 10th place, 16.8 XC time.
Results/starters/times are here http://www.bdwp.co.uk/bur/18/

Edit: they're off again! Wonder why there was a hold.

 

[Honey08]

They're off again.

Kirsty's horse looks like it's doing mounted games, flying along!

 

[caladria]

Were they having to rebuild something around Polly Stockton's fall? She went down early in the course, no one else was on course after Ecroyd's retirement, and we saw Kirsty Short being stopped.

 

[Custard Cream]

Harry's doing the commentary!! Woohoo!

 

[rosiesowner]

I really like cossan lad. He looks like a lot of fun to ride!

 

[rosiesowner]

Harry's doing the commentary!! Woohoo!

Can’t think of many people on this forum who are going to complain

 

[Tiddlypom]

Haha, contain yourself CC, you're a married woman!

 

[Honey08]

Just a buck too quick and not quite enough control in the water there for Kirsty. It's just a bit too keen to manoeuvre, she needs to get it back more.


I'm one of the few who don't enjoy Harry's commentating.

 

[Fools Motto]

Love a bit of Harry! lol

 

[Fools Motto]

wet one

 

[Honey08]

Shame, she'd gone so wel.

Cossan Lad is awesome, but has my heart in my mouth sometimes.

 

[Kadastorm]

Oh bummer. Poor Sarah, she has worked so hard and was doing so well up until that point. Still smiling though!

 

[rosiesowner]

I wonder what the words were that were going through Kirsty’s mind were over the slate mine!!

 

[Fools Motto]

owww, poor Nick

 

[Honey08]

Ben Hobday with the new Mulr!

Liking November Night, he looks a real honest horse.

 

[Tiddlypom]

Harelaw Wizard seems to be even chunkier than Mulrys Error.

 

[scats]

Thought Ben was coming off then.

 

[DirectorFury]

Christ Ben! Well sat.
He definitely has a type, doesn't he .

 

[scats]

Ahh well done Ben.

 

[Honey08]

Oli's horse not looking quite together.

If anyone makes the time I'd put my money on Tina..

 

[SpringArising]

It's lovely to see Oli giving his horses so many pats, he seems one of the few who does so often.

 

[TheOldTrout]

Who's the male commentator who isn't Ian S or Harry M?

 

[only_me]

Think Tina can maintain this speed? 11sec under already...

 

[Honey08]

Oli's horse looked tired. Actually so does he! I don't think that horse would've got round without Oli onboard. Glad to see he's coaxed rather than batted them home. (and I meant batted not battered!)

I wouldn't be surprised if Tina make she time. She often is one of the only ones to make times.
