Unlucky for Fernadez. Horse looked like it planned on carrying on with rider hanging off its neck.

Had a feeling that (German?) horse wasn't getting very far

The other commentator sounds like Lucinda has got on his very last nerve.

I am wondering if Lucinda has memory related issues? She seems to be able to recall the long term past very easily and animatedly but not the short term so well. I hope it's just the pressure/excitement of the day & nothing more serious than that.

Been out so just starting watching. Loved that slow mo of a horse over a skinny brush how clever the horse is as to clearance

Till I saw the name on the screen I thought this one was called Test yer Leg.

Carries on creakily
Ballaghmor Class taking a lot of chances ?

I also thought that, I think she also called Kazuma Tomoto, "Sumo" so she's given me a few giggles this afternoon. Really when you are commentating at WEG it's unacceptable not to know the rules but to be generous, some of her observations about how to ride a fence or how a horse perceives a fence have been interesting.

Tosi corrected himself brilliantly there. Glenfly looks to be showing his age a bit, or is that just me? I will be glad to see them home.

She drops the occasional gem of advice and insight, I'll give her that. But the various mistakes she makes as she rambles on are rather iritating. I wish she'd let the bloke talk more.

Does anyone know if it is available on iPlayer as a catch up. Had really bad internet so it was dropping in and out.
Edit just logged back into iPlayer and it will be later!!

Thank you That's a relief, I saw his tweet saying they're both okay and worried they had separated somewhere on course.

Waffled a lot!
I should think so! I was amazed when they put them on, it didn’t even look remotely like a missed flag.
Ive really enjoyed watching this today. How refreshing not to have to pay a subscription too!
Everyone always says how amazing Michael Yung is. I do agree, but I think he often gets away with some real wiggle-wobbles Xc! The person that I think is amazing Xc is Ros Canter. She sets her horses up so accurately. Alby had big shoes to fill, but her young horse is stepping up so well. And Tom rode really well too, I was gutted they put faults on for him. He’d done everything he could to avoid a mistake like he’d made at Badminton.
I really fancy going to Pratoni one day.

Ah, Lucinda… Always take her facts with a pinch of salt. I remember when she joked that Grovine de Reve, Jonelle Price’s Tokyo ride, was being doubly difficult on account of being both a mare and French… Grovine is an ISH stallion (with some French blood, admittedly).

Is the showjumping on BBC Iplayer? I can't find it.

Lots of poles down already. Will be interesting to see if this carries on.
Does anyone know, if a combination is described as wd70 on the leaderboard, does that mean they withdrew or failed the trot up? Was hoping to see Jard go round but sadly that won't be the case.

Calle 44 really helping his rider out here, very clever with his legs.

First world championship completion for Thailand and that too with a lovely quietly-ridden clear round from Samran.

It read a little differently on the Pratoni website
