Is anyone keeping team tally? I think we are pretty much out of contention aren't we?

If we get clears from Ben and John or a clear and a 4 faulter I don't think we are out of contention.

Only 3 of the scores count.

We are in 3rd with 2 to jump, so both need to go clear with no TPs and we have to hope everyone else cocks up....hmmmmmmmmm

 

[CrazyHippo1]

I think, so far, we are the 3rd best team

 

[Weezy]

Forgot about discards DOH!

 

[CrazyHippo1]

I think the water will still catch a few out, and maybe that final combination

 

[Puppy]

Gosh, the Canadian team aren't as on form as they were on Friday hey...

 

[jesterfaerie]

Hopefully Ben will be able to give us another cracking round!

 

[Weezy]

Oh and I added up wrong - actually ignore me completely.

 

[Puppy]

Americans are looking good aren't they...!!

 

[jesterfaerie]

He was not going to have that wall down was he

 

[CrazyHippo1]

ohh last down!!

 

[Rachel_M]

Ben is such a calm lad for his age. I just wondered whether he can hold it together.

 

[Weezy]

We could do with this one knocking poles!!!

 

[librauk]

this second half is getting sooooooooo exciting !!!!

 

[Weezy]

Thank you! Right well that is good for us!

 

[CrazyHippo1]

Britain are in 4th then atm

 

[kerilli]

wow, what did that horse do to clear the wall! such a shame it had the last.

 

[Rachel_M]

You know, I always wonder why there is never many greys for sale....Now I realise......these Olympians have them. I swear every other horse is grey!

 

[jesterfaerie]

M_H_B I think he will be able to as you said he is such a calm person.
Would question him more if he was last in.

 

[jesterfaerie]

Nice to see so many greys here, greys are the ultimate colour!

 

[CrazyHippo1]

Ben in soon!!

 

[jesterfaerie]

Bugger she is clear jumping and inside the time!

Was just commenting to my mother how many greys there have been in all the equestrian disciplines!!

We are both suckers for them!!

 

[sevenoceans]

beautifully jumped though!

 

[Emma123]

What a round from the Australian- kept her cool so well

But that's only good for her individually. Australia are no threat as a team.
