So far looks like won't be a dressage competition. I know they have only just started but all bar one so far have scored 46.4 or more on xc alone.
Well Done to Harold Ambros. He finished on his dressage score!!!!

 

[amyneave]

Perhaps I spoke too soon. Clayton Fredericks just finished on his dressage score with his first horse. Well Done to him

 

[Saucisson]

OH is there (not competing ) and he has reported that the XC is very flat but with some huge oxers.

 

[amyneave]

Scores starting to come down a little. Pascal Leroy just scored 14.4.

horible looking fall for Vicky Brake, HORSE AND RIDER WALK AWAY. Fence being rebuilt with help from large tractor, hold on course just before Mary King goes on Apache Sauce.
Weather looks sunny and warm and there are apparently 50000 people there!

Mary retires after a glance off at early fence.

Keep Watching. We need updates.

I'm sure your horse will wash itself

Caroline r Bell, 71.6 and into 7th, I want her horse!

 

[amyneave]

Yay for Caroline. We need some good results from the rest of British. It sounds like it must be a tough course.

Beanie Sturgis flying. Water complexs and a downhill fence are the main culprits.Its interesting, Lucy and the commentator agree its not just a dressage comp this year.Libowski is being ridden beautifully and looks strong.

Fabulous near the end, still fresh and running,finishes 68.8. goes 4th
Oslo starting WFP

 

[stroppymare153]

you still watching JCWhite? How did Roma ML look? Little mare made Badminton look easy but had a torrid time at Burghley Hope she's got her confidence back a bit

Definately not a dressage comp by the looks of the results.

Fobby Hobby has completed but with one stop, so adds 36 to dressage score

 

[stroppymare153]

Thanks Amyneave

 

[amyneave]

Beanie Sturgis clear inside time, According to eventing mag on fb she had 17 seconds to spare. Well done her

 

[JCWHITE]

WFP having to majorly ride thro the lake!

Masterful riding thro second lake!

Really thanks for the updates guys. JC I would wash your pony but as I've got a very white coloured I'm resigned to always being dirty
