Burghley

I realized after I posted that, that I really just meant he can ride a very nice dressage test. Otherwise, no not a great rider, he gets around the courses, mostly, but he has wrecked a lot over the years. His sponsors stick with him through thick and the very thin. He does get some spectacular horses though.
just after I posted this I saw this:

There is also the fact that OT has 10 verbal warnings and not a single yellow card. Even though riding an exhausted horse is an automatic yellow card per the FEI.

Did Ollie withdraw Tregilder? Did all his horses get the same score?

Why do you ask? He’s set to ride him first tomorrow per the running order.

@Larksmom @Equibrit posted the scoring and ride times for tomorrow. You can see how his horses scored here. He’s tied for 2nd, 3rd.

I must be seeing things. I swear yesterday, SS and Treglider were tied! And today it is SS and BC! Very weird.

No, there was deffo a screen yesterday where it had them both at 24.something. I saw it, too!

When does coverage start today? I thought they’d be up and going by now just in time for my cocktail hour. :cocktail: :champagne:

I think they start at 11am their time, 6am EST. On Cue/Boyd go at 6:40am EST I believe, and they’re pretty close to the beginning.

it’s up!

Wow 10 and 11, that area, looks like it would be just gorgeous to ride through.

Harry looked VERY fast, and was still one minute over! He did have that one bobble at the end but wow!

Oliver retired on Treglider with a broken rein after winners avenue jump.

Boyd supposedly missed a flag at 15. They did show that fence and he did jump it. Don’t know hat the problem was. Two clear time wise so far.

Boyd’s flag penalty has been removed!

Can someone explain to me why the fish at the Lion Bridge is optional? And if it is, why in the world would you jump it?

Ugh, I thought Christoffer was going to save that! He nearly had it!

late to the game, but I have just subscribed and watching live!!

happily surprised how easy it was.

Ros and Austin out!

Burghley always scares the crap out of me, but most make it look so easy. At least two have made the time. Time is really made here

Was there a hold on course earlier? Seems like they’re running behind.
