[dieseldog]

[Jemayni]

Oooo, KD jumped outside the flag! Brits are on the up!

 

[dieseldog]

NT went direct at flowerbeds only 3rd person to do it he's going for the win

Have been watching the last hour....exciting stuff!!
Lot s of fallers.
My heart is in my mouth each time a horse strikes a flag after the accident at Badminton....thought they may have e introduced flexi flags!
Saw the yellow flag (warning from the judges that they are not too happy with how the horse is going) and the rider subsequently retired.....

 

[flohelf]

Yeah, go Nico !!!

 

[Eventer101]

Thats all right. You would have had a bit of a laugh. Hows he been going so far. I must admit i didnt fall for it though. Its hard to imagine with a horse like that

 

[dieseldog]

clear at the slope jumped the 1st 2 parts direct took long to the 3rd

 

[flohelf]

Don't say that with the bad luck the French are having these days

 

[dieseldog]

jumped the 2 tricky logs, knocked the flag off

 

[Puppy]

At the risk of sounding stupid, is this the same grey NT was riding at the last Olympics?!

 

[Eventer101]

Yep

 

[Jemayni]

Yes, its coat has faded quite a bit....

 

[dieseldog]

he's jumped the doulbe of trakenners

 

[Puppy]

Aha! I thought so, but was confused it was still so dark grey. I thought it would have been lighter by now

Stunning horse!

ETS - how old is it??

 

[dieseldog]

nasty moment at the gazebo, straight thru the water

 

[flohelf]

Can't stand this suspense

DD, don't pull another funny one on us

 

[dieseldog]

[Puppy]

He's gone clear, but don't know about the time yet...

 

[dieseldog]

[flohelf]
