Think so, just lots of time faults. We were shrieking "SIT UP!" at that last water though!

Looks like it, 44.4 time pens though.
ETA - no. He had 20 at the last water according to Ian Stark.

There's going to be a lot of very tired horses tomorrow. That swiss horse looks knackered

Ouch Spain, that horse hit the fence pretty hard on the edge, at least take a look to make sure your horse is OK!

BBC coverage is really disappointing, suddenly changes and stick eventing on red button which we can't get with BT Vision so I'm stuck watching it online, without even showing the end of the round.
Considering that they want to scrap equestrian sports due to 'lack of interest', yet won't show the XC on BBC1/2/4, I'm not surprised that the arguement of lack of interest has been brought up. If you show it on some online service where you have to look for it to watch it, of course people won't be interested if they're just casual watchers.
Some nasty falls so far - commentators have said it's riders rather than course, but I really felt for Tim Price.
Loving Just Chocolate though!

I was thinking just the same. What a solid, dependable looking horse.

Basically that Quicklook massively over jumped the third, gave herself a fright and then ran very green after that. The rest of the team need to ride by the seat of their pants!
