Ruth Edge..??

She is ok (ish). Was discharged from hospital on Sunday night. Got concussion but I dont think anything broken. I am sure she is very sore but it could've been worse.
 
Pleased to know she is OK. The helo landed during B's dressage test.

It went enter at A up centre line with yellow Helo descending behind you. Try not to turn round to see where it is going. Try to keep horses attention etc!

It didn't even land close to the dressage, silly horse.

Did they get all the horses XC safely in the end - I know David said they were close to running out of light with all the stoppages and the very slow SJ ring.

The medics took ages before they took off again - I was very concerned for a while. Joss i guessing you know the steward yesterday?
 
Yep, Dad stewarding. All finished ok, I think they had them flying round at minute & a half intervals. Kept the fence judges awake!

Not 100% sure what happened to Ruth Edge. I think horse just mis-judged at the log pile/tabley thingy at the bottom of the hill in the water jump field (great description..) in the Intermediate class. She went head first groundwards. Dad thought she had broken her shoulder but obviously not.

At Burnham Market they tend to use the Air Ambulance if they have anyone who needs to go to hospital as its such a long bumpy way by road.
 
Thank god for that there were all sorts of rumours going round the lorry park on Sunday. Thank god for air ambulances I certainly wouldn't have fancied being driven by ambulance out of BM.

The organisers did a fantastic job as they were running over an hour late and they just pushed everyone through really quickly and did the presentations very quickly after the end and we left just before 7pm.
 
Hi all!

Thank God she's ok. And also that air ambulance and organisers did such a great job.

Hope your dressage went ok, Thistle, with the helicopter entering at A!

With every best wish to all, and especially to Ruth - such a great rider. Hope you're back soon, BS x
