It was a narrow section with the crowd quite close on both sides if I’m remembering correctly. I imagine it was someone waving a flag or something else from the crowd. Or maybe a shadow. Or a blade of grass. Definitely nothing that stood out to me as an obvious spook inducer.

Couple of views of 7 which is very cool to watch - an interesting choice by the course designer to do a slope after the step up instead of two steps. Hard for them coming out of the bright sunlight I think.

Is the jump judge trying to pull this rider up? Horse looks exhausted.

I think so

That’s what I saw too, not sure if the rider saw them?

Chipmonk is already sweating

Why is he still trotting?? Aren’t you supposed to leave the course at the walk?

very exciting. GB and FR have a commanding lead. anything could happen for the rest if someone has a refusal or a lot of time penalties.

Getting to watch Chris Burton and Michael Jung on course at the same time is such a clinic.
