I'm Amazed That.....................

Nobody has acknowledged what an achievement for Clea Phillips and Lead The Way to be the only clear round at Burghley today, you all seem stuck on the William and Mary show.

Not only that but it was one of the class rounds yesterday too and I haven't seen any mention of that either unless it's in the 30 page long thread which I haven't trawled through yet.
Also disappointed that BBC didn't see fit to show at least some of Rosie Thomas's round from yesterday in the XC highlights considering she was pathfinder and did so well. Mind, the promised coverage was a bit of a farce to say the least; who wanted to see a tent put up and taken down again for so long?!

Ummm, I thought Nicola and Opposition Buzz that went clear

I must say I was very impressed with both Clea and Nicola and the boys and I were cheering them both on

I agree with you, i thought Clea rode a really great round xc, i didn't see her showjumping but she came 6th so must of done well, and i love her horse! Well done Clea and Lead the Way!!

TBH I think everyone deserves a mention, you wouldn't catch many of us out there jumping such massive fences!

Used to see Vere out showjumping with lead the way a lot, is a lovely little horse ( well looked little with him on!!!!) He jumped a fantastic clear for clea ( god thats a bit of a mouthful) Have seen them out competing a few times and she rode so much stronger round the x country yesterday than i have seen her before, he is definately going to be one to watch as they can produce a lovely dressage ( bearing in mind she was 12th after dressage having made a mistake) and is a very consistant showjumper.
Huge congratulations to her, as well as the bigger names above her.

I stand corrected, forgot about N having one too, but the only two to go clear, that's got to be applauded!

Hell yes, and both girls rode so well and looked so, so happy with their horses - I nearly cried when Nicola finished and was hugging her pony!

 

[PeanutButterDragon]

I was also very happy for Sara Squires and Tracey Garside who finished 19th and 30th!! What great results for their first 4 stars!

I know Opposition Buzz just looked superb and Nicola gave him a cracking ride,so nice to see her hugging him like that!

Well done Clea, said yesterday that he's nearly grade A so must be very carefull.

Can I also say a BIG well done to Jeanette Brakewell and Chill Out Bob, he only had 3 down and considering how influential it was, did very well. He had 7 down at Luhhulmen + 3 time and normally has about 5 down. WELL DONE !!!

Huge well done to Nicola WIlson though 2 DC's at a 4* an a 3* in a year, pretty impressive
