The Badminton XC thread!

I saw RP jump the first - so he retired?

DAMN DOG ON THE COURSE! The motorbike had to avoid a dog and go close to RP's horse, so the horse spooked

I hope they kick whoever's dog it was out

RP must be absolutely livid. and the buggy driver really should have stopped after it had spooked the horse, rather than carrying on and still being in its eyeline as it came to the 2nd octagon hedge.
and whoever owns the dog that caused the problem needs a big fine!
 
Its because there are more 4* than ever before so no point when you can go to some other events.
 
Sorry, but how hard is it to just keep hold of your dog, I always take my dog to these things but she doesn't bark, yap or try to bugger off! Makes me really angry- I hope that they don't one day ban dogs just because of a few muppets that can't control their animals!
 
Will they wait until there's an accident to get rid of the quad bikes, and the dogs?

I wouldn't care if I didn't see close-ups that were that close.
 
Hmmmmmmmm,maybe it's time to get strict with dog owners?

My OH nearly got into a fight there 2 years ago, when someone's Pointer (not on a lead) launched on our Lab. I had to pull him back, very embaressed!

But there's always dogs barking in huntsmans close, and there was a dog chasing the heels of the horses near the vicarage vee was it last year?? And now that hoo-ha with Rodney.

It's a shame, there are a minority of idiots that ruin it for everyone else.

well, considering the sizes of their zoom lenses, they really don't need to track across and get so close at all!
 
Hey come on - that could have been someones nipper getting in the way - things like that happen - its an accident!

Should we ban kids? And by that vein - stupid people who might get in the way too?..
 
Shows the difference that the young girl on the grey (I'm assuming she's young!) carried on until she was eliminated, obvioulsy desperate to get her first completion, however most of the others have retired after a stop.
