What is everyone's view on this years Badminton XC course?

Can't wait to see the Owl Hole being jumped on top of the Outlander Bank! Should be interesting to see the equine reactions.

Huntsmans Close looks v.technical, looks a real challenge, the log after the bounce is within an interesting proximity!

Foaming at the bit this year after the cancellation...does anyone know what TV coverage there will be?
 
yeah I did raise my eyebrows at huntsmans close, it should be interesting to watch. as well as the keyhole jump :) the foot bridge, I wish they shown an actual photo of that one, as it looks interesting. I will definitely be watching, even if I have to go round neighbours house to watch it on sky :)
 
Huntsmans close looks interesting fairly early in the course too, the last log looks almost unjumpable :eek:
The outlander bank looks fairly impressive and I would wonder what the horses will think. There is no way I'd want to jump that serious log into the lake!
 
Make it smaller, softer, shorter, demolishable, have less horses running to save the ground, scrap the dressage and show jumping as 3 days is far too much hard work for any horse.

I do think we should have BCA (British Cross-country Association) and run affiliated cross-country only comps. I don't really enjoy the dressage, and sj is ok but my true love is xc :D this would be amazing! :D its only fair, we have BD and BSJA, so wheres separate xc? :)
