Haven't seen Zirocco Blue in the other rounds - was there a whipping incident?

Yes, yesterday. He was eliminated (refusals at a combination iirc) and the over use of whip happened in the collecting ring afterwards.
Not yesterday - in the qualifiers on Sunday.

Ben and Nick have qualified for the individual at least. Can't help but think with the form they're in we haven't a hope in hell lol

Wonder if the Spanish rider will also appeal re the crowd incident? She seemed quite upset when she came out.....

only just being able to watch now.

I hope she does appeal, it was some very loud, threatening shouting and it could have been anything from a missing child to a security threat. I know the commentators were going on about how it wouldn't have bothered her, but even when you're competing you can hear sudden loud noises and they can put your horse off as well.

Unfortunately, I doubt she'll get anything from an appeal as a man running in front of the horse was dismissed at appeal for Cian O'Connor as not being a disturbance, but that really mustn't have been nice for her to deal with and she did seem very angry.

I hope Nick gets his appeal, are the tiles plastecine like they are for the long jumpers?
 
Michael won't be riding again - Cassionato showed signs of colic last night (unclear from the update I saw whether he actually came down with colic or not).
