Probably a wise choice-it seemed to me that she looked a lot weaker riding Blake earlier than she normally does-not holding her galloping position as solidly as she usually does. Maybe she hasn’t quite gotten her fitness back after having her baby (which is totally fair!)

Commentators are saying Tim was eliminated, not sure why though.

Yes, I saw that he (Tim) was stopped and thought it was a hold on course? But of course we didn’t get to see the coverage of whatever happened - maybe he got an E somewhere? I just saw the stop at the ditch.

I’m following on the Startbox scoring website. For Caroline, it says R. I thought R meant retired meaning the rider made a conscious decision to stop vs being forced to stop which would be an E/Eliminated because of too many stops, ground jury says dangerous riding, etc. So is a rider fall called a Retirement or Elimination?

It’s usually signified by RF
I was wondering if maybe the R stood for MR, which is horse fall.
I agree. I wonder if he got pulled up for another reason? It’s strange bc he’s currently showing at the bottom of the scoreboard but not under the being E’d on XC section. So strange.
Tim Price stopped by the vet crew for suspicion of blood, but cleared and allowed to restart.

looks like they pulled Tim up for blood on the horse – then checked it out and restarted him.

they thought they saw blood so they pulled him up and examined him. They will restart.
Hmm that’s a dubious one for Boyd. I want to say Luke’s shoulders were inside, but maybe not.

I saw a clip on Boyd’s social media earlier this week. Luke is reportedly a gem on the ground for Steph but a real pistol under saddle. Sounds like he keeps Boyd humble…
