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 real time, not on the BBC. She starts at 1448. BBC is about 45 mins behind now.....what time is the coverage on until?
 
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...

do we think that andrew nicholson has now realised why ruth sold muschamp dangle legs impala......

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...

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