Mary King!

Taken from the same article -

Mary King, competing this week with Cashel Bay and her world team silver medal-winner, Call Again Cavalier, is more sanguine about the challenge ahead. “I can’t imagine not running on Saturday because it’s Badminton and very special,” she said, “but I’ll see what they’ve done to the course between now and then and I’ll talk to my owners.”

just seen WFP's webby didnt realise the ground was the reason!
It has just been so hot this spring

Can't say I blame them though, really.

Blimey sooo many people arn't running any more

Going to be very strange not seeing WFP, and Pippa.

Has Tamarillo been retired? Because I would have thought he was WFP's horse for the Europeans, but he only mentions Ballincoola in the article......

 

[madgirl]

no dont think so but think ballicoola is his chance for this years europenas or so he says on his webby!

Tam's got a slight injury according to the Telegraph, which appeared at the wrong time and it wasn't worth the risk etc

I'm sure the ground will be as good as they can get it for saturday
