i am amazed at how well they're jumping the rolex big-table to skinny thing. that looked absolutely HUGE and really difficult.
crap line to the brush in Disco valley from JB then.

i agree with Ian, i'd be waving my whip down their left side all the way in!

i wonder if AN will keep the ride or try and get rid f it? IMO its kinda dangerous as it does dangle a lot...REwas very very lucky at badders not to have been squashed more severely

In tracey's defence - she has bought this horse from a youngster and hasn't ridden at this level before, so she's done well.

The horse is really, really strong (I knew it as a youngster) and a couple of weeks ago at Thirlstane, got away from her, jumped over the strings off the course and piss*d off with her - I think I'd be careful too!!

I think it should definitely compete at a lower level for a while...

oh yes, but he did fine on old dangle legs metronome, didn't he?!
difference is, metronome dangled his lower forelegs, MI dangles his whole legs like a spider!
amazing that he got a horse's foot stuck in the final arena fence 2 years running...

 

[B_2_B]

ok so she'll be on in about 50 minutes? 3.35?

 

[Holidays_are_coming]

I like chill out bob, looks like a nice horse

 

[carys220]

Almost as if they knew they weren't going to be live, Mary King is last to go at 1528....

Blimey... No wonder she was so careful! Fair deuce to her!

 

[jules89]

i worry about MI becoming another statistic in the sport for a rotational, i know the sport is dangerous etc but the horse hasnt seem to have learnt..

 

[only_me]

did she just squash a dog?

 

[jules89]

i hope so. the yappy things are annoying me now

Ah I see! Thats the sort of thing I was wondering about, so thanks for the clarification
