aaargh but Tom goes up

 

[piebaldproblems]

On the BBC it felt like the commentators didn't dare speak

Unlike discovery, where commentators don’t care either way.

 

[RachelFerd]

Another incredible round from Tom and Toledo. Guaranteed medal. Awesome....

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Oh Oli......

 

[Jeni the dragon]

Gutted for Oli!

 

[OldNag]

I've just stopped for some lunch and to watch.. I'm on discovery and realise I'm watching a round behind you lot.. I can't watch Oli now... argh my nerves wont stand it.

 

[Splash2310]

Anyone watching on Eurosport 2? What on Earth happened with the commentator randomly screaming….

 

[Lexi_]

Oh I’m sad for Oli. That horse has been an absolute legend over the years.

 

[piebaldproblems]

Wishing a good couple poles down for Julia…

 

[TheOldTrout]

Oh poor Oli. So disappointing after leading for 2 days.

 

[Apercrumbie]

So gutted for Oli, he really deserves another medal.

 

[Honey08]

Oh no. That really couldn’t be helped. He rode it as well as he could. And considering all the faults over this course, Oli and Laura did so well.

 

[HashRouge]

Oh no gutted for Oli! I actually couldn't watch that!

 

[Wishfilly]

Oh no. This feels so cruel.

 

[Kat]

Oh Oli - heart breaking

 

[hoofprints1994]

Absolutely amazing for Tom but gutted for Oli because the rest of that round was beautiful and he really deserved a second medal.

 

[Michen]

When they say no individual medal surely there's still a chance for Oli if Julia messes up?

 

[rosiesowner]

Watching that there was no doubt she was going clear. Textbook. Stunning!

 

[fetlock]

Beatiful round from Julia. Well deserved (but still gutted)

 

[Kat]

Pole down vibes now (I don't really mean that she's awesome)

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Fab round. Congrats

 

[Lexi_]

Oh that’s a class, class round by Julia and she deserves it.

Silver for Tom though!!!

 

[Honey08]

Another super show jumping horse! Got to applaud that. But great result for Tom!

 

[myheartinahoofbeat]

well done Julia, brilliant round on her 3 rd horse

 

[HashRouge]

Ugh Julia was sickeningly good!

 

[piebaldproblems]

Man she’s just too good - definitely deserves that medal.

 

[TPO]

She's done it

Class act

 

[Rosemary28]

Beautiful round from Julia, I love watching her ride.

 

[Apercrumbie]

What a beautiful round from Julia. Very deserved, but I am so gutted for Oli.

But Tom!! Impeccable showjumping, such a gorgeous horse and beautifully ridden.

TEAM GOLD, INDIVIDUAL SILVER!!!

 

[SpottyTB]

Amazing round.
