Certainly didn’t enjoy watching some of the early starters. Tom and Lauren are both looking good so far.

Think David Doel will be our first chance of seeing the time being met

That was a brilliant performance from Lauren, despite the time penalties.

it was a horse fall at the corner near the Centaur’s Leap. Thankfully, both got up, although David looked a bit sore.

Question from an old fogey
Carrie Sangster has an ear piercing. Are there no rules about that at 5*? I mean I know it’s slightly different from an earring but you could still rip your ear badly if you had a fall.
Anyway. I’m just getting too old….

Emma HW has a dangerous riding marked against her on the live scores, fence 21b, which is one of the Trout Hatchery fences

Piggy and Eric will start very soon. Think Pippa’s going to be a nervous wreck!

Afraid of exorcism
The online scoring has it against the last fence.
Anyone know what it was for and what happens when this is given?

It's moved now she's finished, and will be down to ground jury to decide what the result is, either warning or yellow card

Hollie Richardson is the round of the day so far for me. And also credit to Tom strawson and Public Address the little point to pointer - not classic, not mad scopey, but so clever and just got around using his brain. Super disappointed for Lucy Latta to have that issue in an otherwise brilliant round.

Argh, no! Feel so gutted for Pippa as her round was looking secure until that point.

Shame for Piggy, I actually think the horse looks like it was going better for her generally and jumping better than with Pippa.
Perhaps with a bit more time together they'll solve the hiccups.

Yeah, I agree. Thought today was a great lesson for Eric, despite the run-outs.

Harry’s done it again.
Does anyone know why Piggy got stopped near the end? Her result’s not confirmed yet.

Loved WFP commentary on Piggy's mishaps.
Thought that Carrie Sangster was like a young Ros. Super round. Pity she didnt mention her horse in post xc interview.
Am popping in and out so not watching it all.
