What has happened to Pippa Funnell?

[disco]

She doesn't seem to be doing much? Is everything OK or have I missed something?

It just seems strange that one minute she's at every event, there are articles on her in most equestrian magazines etc and she's not competing at Burghley? (which I know that maybe she hasn't got a horse to event at Burghley)

I do hope that she's OK, can anyone enlighten me?

Here's some theories

l think she is very keen to start a family and possibly doesnt want to jepardise that

Hi guys,

sorry, just found jnb's post on 29/08/07 which has filled me in!

For whatever her reasons, the eventing world just isn't the same without her.

Best Wishes to Pippa, you are being missed x

Hi
I was wondering what had happened to her this year - but cannot find anything in previous posts. Any chance of giving a clue?!

Shes entered for Pau thsi weekend on Ensign.

Been pretty much unbeatable over the autumn season too.

Agree. She won or placed in several classes at SoE the other week and won the PAVO 6yo class at Tweseldown, and was 3rd in the 5yo's. She's had a quieter season overall for reasons that most of will speculate about but I think you'll see more of her next year

She had several rides at Little Downham over the weekend.

She's mentioned a fair few times in the lastest issue of Eventing - seems to be winning everything and anything on her youngsters

Yes has some pretty unbeatable youngsters! all good xc think she has had a bout 2 xc rounds with penalties this year!
Redesigned looks a super prospect interesting to see how highly she rates him in this months eventing!
Her youngsters are definatly doing well!
