Is it conceivable that some of these 5* pairs will also contest Fair Hill in the fall?
Iâm wondering if Tim Price might get inside the time. Bangoâs really moving!

I think it depends on Olympic team selections for some of them, whether they go for fair hill or not.

What the heck??? Mike Pendelton looks to be down too by the scores
Yup. Down at the Moguls.
Omg that fall for Lillian is giving me chills thatâs exactly how I broke my leg in 4 places but she is walking off thank god.
Itâs kind of amusing itâs all rider falls and not many falls. Riders out of shape?

So Frankie mentioned that this is the course Derek planned to use last year and he didnât modify it at all. It really shouldnât make a difference (a 5* is a 5*), but Iâm wondering if that combined with the fact that everyoneâs a little rusty is contributing to the falls. I feel like weâre getting a lot of falls where there should be run outs.
