Never seen him ride before and he was more concerned with having a tantrum than checking his poor bloody horse!!!

I think my comments where very fair! And I wasn't the only one who said it!

I do not think thats fair at all. He rode very well and was such a good image for the sport at Badminton.

He was going well here, as at Badminton and he had bad luck!

Poor Matt, he deserves a good run, a winning 4* run!

i wouldnt say that was unfair, everyones allowed an opinion, but he did ride fabulously and i agree with u, eventerlad, that he sdeserves a good run at a higher level now (but not winning, sorry!

he probably will need a new hat the force it hit the ground! poor little horse, the way he whickered when he stood up was so sweet.

I think you may have just put a spolier in as they have shown Zara on BBC and have said nothing!

I know it was sooo cute!! Love love love that horse
Kerilli - yeh he chucked his hat on the floor and said "F*ck" then proceeded to yank the girth and flash off with a hell of a lot of force.
However until that point like i said i thought he rode fantastically but that outburst has lost my respect

??? First thing he did after the hat throw was loosen the girths and the noseband, then patted him and walked away..........good enuff imo......

He yanked the girth up and undid it's reins with some vigour.... the way the stewards reacted is what I would've preferred to see from MW....IMO.
