Very surprised WFP hasn't made the time

 

[gadetra]

TP's for WFP...
Toddy Flying down that hill!

 

[kirstyhen]

Who'd have thunk WFP would be the one to get the most TPs.

 

[ClobellsandBaubles]

Christ I think I have palpitations!
Anyone know where I can find times for Tina and Mary?

 

[teapot]

Am surprised at that actually - well done WFP

 

[Honey08]

William not going to make the time. Lionheart tired.


9.2 timefaults. Lionheart really looked like he had no fuel left.

 

[Tank_08]

Well done William!! Fairplay to Lionheart, tried so hard!

 

[Leg_end]

Yippee all Brits home safe and sound!

 

[amage]

Lionheart looks knackered

 

[measles]

Well done William! Huge respect for not chasing the horse to and over the last.

 

[PeanutButterDragon]

Now Will is home I can breathe!!

 

[kirstyhen]

Taking sweeties from Babies is just mean Scotty!

 

[Miss L Toe]

WF-P rides Lionhart with sympathy, a tired horse at the end.

 

[gadetra]

My God Toddy is a joy to watch!

 

[teapot]

The two guys who train racehorses both have tired looking horses...

 

[Trolt]

Well done William! Huge respect for not chasing the horse to and over the last.

Agreed. Kudos to Will for nursing a tired horse home really sympathetically

 

[Saratoga]

Very sympathetic ride from Mr F-P

 

[kirstyhen]

Lionheart is only a baby though, this will have been a big ask for him. WFP has gallops at home and has such attention to detail that there is no way the horse wasn't as fit as it could have been.

 

[AprilBlossom]

My God Toddy is a joy to watch!

He really is isn't he! Just makes everything look so simple, like he's just quietly schooling round. The way he just rode that drop was fab!

 

[Honey08]

Well done Toddy! chasing flyer strides round to be in the running!

 

[gadetra]

He's so balanced. Heels down up and off ya go!!

 

[kirstyhen]

Flippin' gibbets, give me a heart attack Toddy!!!!

 

[amage]

Yikes close one for toddy at the last

 

[Tank_08]

Oh i thought he was coming off :0

 

[Honey08]

Gret finish for Toddy.

 

[measles]

Everyone needs a bit of luck!

 

[gadetra]

Janey bit of a worrying last one but super round from Toddy. He is a genius.

 

[gadetra]

Ireland 7th

 

[measles]

Can someone tell me how it works tomorrow for the show jumping with two rounds?

 

[Honey08]

What a superb team we had today. Hardly a fault between them and all on good scores.

Germany are one fence ahead of us. Sweden and NZ a fraction behind us.

If anyone is down there, please go round and glue some SJ fences up before you go home!!! Going to be terrifying tomorrow!!
