Who is commentating?

 

[attheponies]

I'm rather enjoying the commentators for once!

 

[SpringArising]

Who's the guy who doesn't have a Mute button?

 

[sasquatch]

the second fence is causing problems

Who's the guy who doesn't have a Mute button?

Is he also commentating for badminton radio? It's a bit much!

 

[SpringArising]

Ahhh it's Matt Ryan.

 

[SpringArising]

Is this Emily again also? Is she reading from a piece of paper? Sounds like a robot!

ETA - Apparently it's a Daisy someone.

 

[ElleSkywalker]

Daisy Bunn?

 

[milliepops]

I like listening to Matt, I used to train with him when I was eventing and his enthusiasm is infectious

I think Daisy is Daisy Berkeley.

 

[SpringArising]

They've updated it to include the commentator names now! Rupert Bell, Matt Ryan and Daisy Dick.

your username always reminds me of Daisy, she had that lovely horse spring along

 

[Nayumi1]

Fence 2 is definitely causing issues

 

[sasquatch]

Come on Ben!!

 

[SpringArising]

Finding Daisy really irritating too... keeps muddling her words and sounds so monotone.

Lovely round from Pippa, what a cracking horse

Don't think I breathed the whole time she was in the ring 😂

Really enjoyed Pippas round, such a lovely horse.

Some nice behind-the-scenes interviews on BBC2 at the mo

 

[Lammy]

Watching the top 20 now on bbc red button. Quite liked Nicky Hill’s ride.

 

[sasquatch]

Shame for the Japanese rider

 

[milliepops]

hahaha useful slo-mo close up of the horse's head over the fence. Sometimes you wonder whether the cameraman knows what part the rest of us are looking at

 

[milliepops]

Pressure is on now after that clear round from Chris!

Cracking round by Chris

 

[milliepops]

shame about that pole for Oli, the horse looks to have recovered really well after yesterday

 

[milliepops]

did anyone catch the interview they broadcast with him at the start of the normal tv coverage at lunchtime today? he came across really well I thought.

 

[milliepops]

[ElleSkywalker]

Ooo come on Imogen she helped me choose a scarf for my Willberry

 

[milliepops]

I absolutely love Euro Prince, it was a shame about the pole.

Little Fire is going fantastically for William too
