Well Done Zara

Brilliant round, brilliantly ridden! Took an absolute flyer at the cricket balls ..... which took some balls given there's been couple of nasty falls there :D


Me thinks some on here may be eating their words and some humble pie ;)

Indeed!!

Some on other parts of this forum were quite disparraging of her selection which I personally thought was very unfair. There is undoubtedly added pressure on her due to her background, parentage and how well known she is. Let's face it, if one of the others on the team fell off in the water, no one other than those of us watching today would know. If Zara did it, it would probably make the 10 o'clock news - this being the Olympics hosted in Britain


Thought she did brilliantly - well done!!!
 
I have been stupid enough to read the Daily Mail "report"

one of the captions on the photos read "Zara looked slightly unsteady and nervous and she rode High Kingdom"

FFS

Anyway well done to Zara and Co
 
Agreed! I thought there were some very unnecessary comments on here following her selection but she certainly justified her place (not of course that she needed to). Well done to all the team.

Hahah, couldn't imagine anyone looking LESS unsteady or nervous. She rode it like she stole it! Coming up to one of the last fences - took a check and WHACK, horse absolutely FLEW the fence. Yeah, that's unsteady/nervous. :eek:
 
So proud of Zara! I love it when people prove everyone wrong! I think she comes across as knowledgable, composed and down to earth. Very likeable.
 
oops hho curse...you posted that just as she smashed a jump down with indecision on a stride...oh well 7 faults is better than 8.....gotta hope for some mistakes from the germans now!
