[Daffodil]

[seabiscuit]

What a shame about Zaras horse

 

[Puppy]

[only_me]

that first water dosent appear that difficult

 

[lucretia]

well said. and an 11.15 sec xc? are they having a laugh. preparing us for the 7 minute xc in greenwhich no doubt.

 

[clairel]

TOs isn't having the easiest ride!

 

[tiggs]

Does anyone watching on sky know how to get rid of the blue menu button that hides the time

 

[Bossanova]

I have to say though that all the horses which have been so are very experienced horses with excellent xc records- you'd expect them to find it ok. I suspect we'll see more problems in the middle part of the day

 

[Puppy]

Eak! Bit of a hairy moment there for TO & BR!!

Nice to see then back on track now

No idea, but it is extremely annoying! It took me awhile to work out why I couldn't see the time anywhere!

 

[only_me]

[BBs]

Was thinking just the same Boss.

LOL! That's driving me mad too

Odd little moment there for TO

 

[clairel]

OH! TO and BR are taking a few chances!

 

[only_me]

I did say earlier that all riders been so far have been very experienced

 

[seabiscuit]

True about the time-The horses are positively cantering round. And are barely sweating or puffing when theyv'e finished

Boss we will see what the later horses bring!

 

[clairel]

Well sat Dan!

 

[EveningStar]

eeeek that was a bit scary for Dan at the ditches!!

[only_me]
