I though he rode wonderfully and did especially well to regroup after the mare struggled in the combination and clearly became rattled. The score did not reflect the effort.
We have to remember, only last year Rolette was jumping 1.40 and Ben didn't even ride her. To acheive what she has is fantastic. It was just one round too many for her.
All the medal winners were little firey blood horses, our larger horses just couldn't cope with the heat.
Hopefully 2012 will be our year!!
