I really liked the look of Sir Persival and think I could prob forgive him the cascade issue it is a v

fence, and second choice I think I would like Barry's Best pls
smile.gif
He looks such fun!

Also it's interesting to see how few riders are wearing the point 2 jackets compared to Badminton (were they given a free one at Badders?)
 
well I love Percy as well Chloe but wouldnt be brave enough to jump him, and then i like watership down, he is such a jumper and looks really like he would help you out ( i would need him too!)
 
I have a soft spot for Barry's Best... I got some wonderful photographs of him being washed down and cooled off at Badminton and have just finished a painting of him based on a few of them... he would be totally wasted on me as an eventer as I couldn't ride either side of him but he'd make a wonderful live-in muse!

Was lovely to see him and Rosie have such a great round yesterday

i think AN must be velcroed on how on earth did he stay in the plate and then finally just step off at that horrid moment on his other horse at the corner?...not called Mr Stickability for nothing I guess!

I absolutely loved Mary Kings mare don't know her name, she was so genuine, can't believe how Mary stayed on over that corner
shocked.gif
OMG she's such a good rider.

Seacookie, seen as no one else wants him

Failing that Boondoggle to look at, but wouldn't be able to cope with the twisting when jumping but hey, I'd pay someone to ride them anyhows!

Did anyone else notice Matt Ryan's colour co ordinated gloves?


Apologies for going off topic!

i agree, Major buck is so cute
 
Lenamore, he would be related to all the rest already living here!
Interesting to see he has the same characteristics right down to the snip mark on his nose and massive ears! The nippiness, good on his feet and boldness all pass through from a horse called Knock Boy, little known of as a stallion but sire of Seacrest/Cruising and down to Lenamore...
There were quite a few I watched I wouldn't want, just too big/gangly and looked as if they would fall over if their riders weren't so capable..

I love Marys mare (tess) King's Temptress. She was so honest over that corner
blush.gif
! I also liked the germans Stallion- looked tricky but super talented!
 
Dunauger.

Big beautiful and bold horse very capable of pulling a good dressage test out of the bag.

So sorry to see what happened to him over the weekend. I always regarded harry as a very quiet and sympathetic rider so the rcent events have shocked me a bit. I know dunaugers owner/former rider quite well and she is a lovely lady.......if only she had stayed with him and built up on her sucessful (but very slow) badminton run.

I have a feeling she might be getting him back now :-)
