That poor fence judge at the water has been busy....bet he thought he would have an easy job and get a great view of the jumping!

I think Tim and Ben could both have a good shot in the individual. Corlato seems full of running and Bens just going fantastically. I would love for him to get a medal so much

TBH we have no excuses because Canada were in exactly the same position...

Not exactly - cos they had 4 jump in round one, so could drop a score.

If we'd had a fourth rider jump yesterday, clear or on a 4 we could have dropped a score of 8.

Was it just me who thought Russel looked dead as soon as came in, striaght away I thought thats not going to jump well, when he knocked the first I thought thats it for us.

Ben has done such a cracking job. I look forward to the individuals.

all 3 GB riders will qualify for thurs, and they start with a clean slate, so should be a fair comp on thurs, plus the horses will have a days rest
