[lucretia]

for those who dont already know, sharon Hunt is also going to withdraw from lexington and go to badminton instead.

In case you don't know it yet,Lu, 2 out of the 4 frenchies have withdrawn...
Have you seen which frenchies are going to badders this year ?

 

[lucretia]

i didnt know that Flo, who isnt going? and the badminton entries are here http://www.badminton-horse.co.uk/pdf/Entries%2010.4.09.pdf xx

Jean Teulere and Didier Dhennin. JT's horse injured a foot after losing a shoe and DD's Ismene had blood taken and they weren't that happy with the results so don't want to risk it.
Only Nico/Hildago and Stanislas de Zuchowitcz/Quirinal de la Bastide will be going to Lex

I know who's going to badders and apart from Bruno Bouvier who is an 'old' timer now

and who's doing it for kicks

, I was surprised at the other 2... Particularly at Diamant du Pontet, 18 yo AA, doing badders for the first time at his age

The other one is another AA. The good part is that both riders are girls: Hope both do well as this country (unlike the UK) needs toshow a more prominent female presence at top levels in eventing

 

[lucretia]

i think you are right about the girls and as for lexington Nico is the only one the French need isnt he!

they are dropping like flies from the US though arent they. we need a german spy!

 

[flohelf]

See what you mean about the US... They're just waiting for son to be ready for badders

You're probably right about Nico...

(I guess Galan is out of the circuit, not a word about him. I've tried to find out but no luck

.)

 

[Eventerlad15]

Quite a few dropping out then.

What is Lucinda F doing? Needs to decide soon!

 

[lucretia]
