Saumur XC 3* Live Streaming

[Nicnac]

Watching live on http://www.saumur.org/cci/streaming-2012.html - it's chucking it down there. Clayton Fredericks had a fall but no news on either him or horse (Be My Guest).... All I know is course held and Andrew Nicholson has been hanging around for almost 1/2 hour.
French commentators are not forthcoming with information apart from saying that they hope the delay is just due to fence rebuilding...... They are also discussing the weather at length! Any news anyone??

 

[Bustermartin]

I'm watching too - but no idea what has happened to Clayton other than he has had a fall. Hope all OK

 

[teapot]

Looks like a British event with that weather Thanks for the link

 

[vallin]

certainly...damp.

Im watching too, thanks for the info. I have no idea what they are saying

 

[amyneave]

i've been watching too. Hope Clayton is ok. Results (http://www.saumur.org/cci/actualites-listes-et-resultats-cci3-gb.html) list it as a rider fall, not a horse fall, so I suspect the hold is for clayton not By My Guest

Andrew Nicholson getting off his horse, and a rug being put on. It looks incredibly wet

 

[teapot]

Deffo hold on the course as whoever's just got off again

 

[Nicnac]

Horse fine and has been taken back to stables. Clayton is hurt hence delay - no more news at present. Fingers crossed he'll be fine. Just seen taken off in ambulance - 4 wheeled one not air.

 

[Bustermartin]

Come on you French speakers - what are they saying?????

 

[amyneave]

Horse fine, Clayton is hurt hence delay - no more news at present. Fingers crossed he'll be fine

oh no Hope he is ok. Poor Clayton

 

[amyneave]

Andrew Nicholson looks to be warming up again. Must be about to start again

 

[amyneave]

Started again now.

 

[teapot]

Hang on wait - the numbers don't match the riders going by the start list

 

[amyneave]

It's Paul Tapner - Andrew's horses are numbered in the 40s

Its definately Andrew Nicholson. The numbers must be different to results page

 

[vallin]

looking a bit sticky, but some clever footwork from the horse.

 

[Always_A_Moody_Mare]

Im really confused, its Paul Tapners number, but it said Andrew Nicholson on the screen?

 

[teapot]

Clayton trodden on but ok, off to hospital (according to Samantha Clark on twitter)

 

[vallin]

Are there supposed to be this many water jumps...?

 

[amyneave]

Clayton trodden on but ok, off to hospital (according to Samantha Clark on twitter)

glad he's ok

 

[teapot]

Very confusing

 

[Always_A_Moody_Mare]

Thanks for the update

 

[vallin]

Also, are they just having one horse on course at a time?

 

[teapot]

Ah I got it - the numbers on the results page/numbers on their bib are in the order they're going xc

He's only 8 and done 1 advanced and 1 CIC 3* so entitled to look a little green especially after such a long hold!

 

[Nicnac]

Thanks for update Teapot

It was meant as praise not an insult
