Will Zarah Philips pull out of badminton !!!

[Gucci_b]

Fox-Pitt has already withdrawn his one remaining ride and gone home; the hot rumour is that Zara Phillips may do the same with Toytown. She has no back up horse and defending her European title later this year is her priority for 2007. There is huge pressure on event director Hugh Thomas to do something remarkable with the going.

Whats your thoughts !!!

Gutting for the organisers/spectators/owners etc but I admire the riders for putting their horses first.

Gosh - I don't know what I would do - I don't want people to pull out - what else will I watch this weekend??!!

But at the same time, if there were any fatalies or serious injuries due to the going, I would rant that they should have pulled out!!

She has withdrawn, so Clare Balding said on the radio a few mins ago.

Really! ASuch a shame for her, Badminton always seems to pass her over.

What radio station was that on?

Zara is quoted on the BBC website as having said ""I would love to run but Toytown's well-being is my main concern. "Because he has had an injury in the past, I don't want to create another. "I shall walk the course again to see what miracles they have done overnight with the watering."
