Maybe other teams will have similar troubles. I guess you never know

Oh dear that ;ady hasn't just had a good round. To my inexperienced eye she looked like she was fighting the horse the whole way around.

 

[volatis]

Particularly as two teams [namely the Australians and the Germans] weren't even going to get through to this stage, then it was decided that they could. Just seems a real shame to me, seeing as if John had gone in and got himself eliminated then he could have jumped - I bet the other teams would have wanted leniency if they were in this position.

eight teams were always going to go through it was just tucker and hadley getting it wrong yesterday and causing confusion spiral

exactly. its ludicrous that he could be allowed had he ridden a lame horse! how that puts horse welfare before competition i dont know. i just think it must be agony that they've excluded him from the individual too, i think that is something else that seems a backwards rule tbh

 

[librauk]

well, thats a surprise, would have deff thought that one would have went clear !!

Yes but haven't nine teams gone through lucretia? Therefore somebody has been lucky to get a place in the 2nd round that they wouldn't otherwise have been able to.
