Who will you be rooting for at Burghley....

[meardsall_millie]

I'd like Ginnie Turnbull to have a good weekend. A local rider who works really hard with a lot of young horses. First timer at 39 (there's hope for me yet

) and a Mum too!

 

[Attila_the_Hungry]

I'd like to see Mary King do well, as I had an XC clinic with her and she was as nice as everyone says (and clearly knows what she's talking about).

Also WFP as he rides so beautifully; Francis Whittington as he's local; ElleJS as she's "one of us" (and any more HHO'ers if there are any); and any pretty young things that catch my eye - especially if they are single!

 

[welshchick]

Apache Sauce used to be ridden by Chris Johnson before he moved to Mary King's yard. As always, I'd love to see Mary win, but AS is not an excellent showjumper and Kings Temptress is not yet experienced at this level. I would be very happy to see Daisy Dick hold the trophy on Sunday as Springalong is such a cracking pony!

I also hope Rosie Thomas and Polly Jackson both get good results.

 

[icestationzebra]

Laura, JP and Harry

 

[KatB]

Have to agree ISZ! Forgot about JP!!

I would quite like Polly Jackson to get a good result, being very local (some of the time anyway

)

, Harry Meade as he is so stylish on a horse and one of my fave riders for his lovely quiet style.

Harry get my vote as well, daughter and i did a courswe walk with him at Badminton last year, he was really down to earth and made sure he talked to everyone involved, such a nice (and good looking!!!) chap. Would be good to see Dazzler do well at his age.

 

[monkeybum13]

Harry meade for the same reasons as above and the fact he is so gorgeous

 

[Cyrus]

Laura definately lol, Team Shears all the way

If not would have to be Mary King, Harry Meade and I would love to see Georgie do well

 

[amyneave]

Would like mary to see go well. WFP has good chance. Also like to see Rosie Thomas, Jennette Brakewell, james robinson, Nicola Wilson and Zara phillips go well.

 

[amyneave]

oh i forgot about Dunauger. Big fan.

 

[Saratoga]

Am half way through the vid course walk and it looks pretty huge and technical already!!!

 

[LEC]

Nobody has mentioned my favourite - Daisy Dick. She deserves a big win and that little horse is smashing. I also love Lead the Way. I have followed his career from the start.

 

[welshchick]

Two of us actually mentioned Springalong above

 

[Kentisheventer]

Zinzan and Rodney

 

[connie1288]

No you wont Kentisheventer he was spun at 1st trot up!!!!

Zinzan was eliminated at the first horse inspection

 

[pootler]

Mary King and Kings Temptress because she's homebred and been brought on from scratch by Mary - I love the owner, breeder, rider angle.

Dunauger because I love duns!

 

[3BayGeldings]

I'll be rooting for everyone but Amy Tryon

Specifically Harry Meade and Kitty Boggis though

I don't think you will be alone

 

[Kentisheventer]

does anyone know why the horses were spun?

 

[lizzieb]

I'm hoping our locals Polly Stockton and Emily Gilruth have great rides.

 

[Rosiefan]

Clea Phillips (was very local to us a few years back and bought a showjumper from my son-in-law - she made him an offer he couldn't refuse

) and Laura of course. Harry Meade every time.
Good luck to all of them though and hope they and their horses all come home safe.

 

[worMy]
