Seriously guys, be thankful you haven't got non-horsey OH commentary going on!

I once went with some non horsey people to watch a friend do some showjumping, that was amusing!

 

[carys220]

Around 50...?

But don't you think, without their minds being jaded to horses, that they often say some things that are just so right. Just spot on.

Indeed, he has a natural eye for some of the movements and comments on them perfectly.

Comment from Ian Stark on the BBC site "He was very naughty at the Badminton Horse Trials this year and showing two fingers to the judges is his attitude. But Daisy did a good job there and the British team will be happy with that."

lol teapot I know the feeling. I kept my fingers crossed that Claytons horse would spook in his test - lol then felt bad when he lost his balance and tripped in his extended trot lol

 

[granfan]

Are there four flying changes on this test?
Or do I have the wrong test sheet?
Or is the reception funny?

 

[Rachel_M]

That extension was a little...erm.. lackluster.

 

[jules89]

im not liking this horse at all i feel sorry for the rider! note how commentaters have said nothing! lol

 

[sammule]

not a bad test from daisy, horse seemed to waiting to explode at any given oppourtunity. Weel ridden if you ask me.

 

[Weezy]

From what I have seen (precious little) I will go with 50.

 

[127]

lol Sunflower - Pod wouldnt even bother to use two fingers - he would do jsut fine with the one middle finger lol

 

[carys220]

halt was a bit crap

 

[jules89]

can anyone else hear that breathing from one of the commentators? (think is it mike tucker? I didnt catch who it was!)

 

[sunflower]

66.7!

 

[carys220]

SHOCKER!!!

 

[Rachel_M]

Ooooh, this looks a nice horse.

 

[Weezy]

LMAO 66.7, shows I need to watch them!

 

[127]

Jules I heard that too - I think it is Mr Tucker!!

 

[Weezy]

Another rider/horse I haven't heard of.

 

[127]

This is a nice loose moving horse

 

[carys220]

Probably hasn't recovered from running back from the loo earlier!!!

 

[sunflower]

Yes - there is an element of heavy breathing coming from the commentary team!

 

[redmerl]

This is a nice stead.

 

[carys220]

Which country is this from?
