No. Peppermill is out.
[QUOTE=Madeline;3451973]
Do we know if Peppermill is going today for GB?[/QUOTE]
Apparently they asked and have not been told ya or nay…IMHO it should be no
GO ERIC GO HICKSTEAD
They said no because he didn’t ride yesterday.
LOL I thought that what I was watching was Hickstead today…nope it is yesterdays round
Bad news for Team GB
For those of you who haven’t heard, John Whitaker and Peppermill are definitely out, but NOT because of the horse’s condition… due to rule technicalities and an objection lodged by all the other teams bar Germany. If only Peppermill had been walked through the starters yesterday. Sigh… Bring on London 2012!!!

I kinda agree with the commitee’s judgement…if he had gone thru the starters and then withdrawn, that would have been better than nothing I suppose…Look at Mac and Ole today…this could put them out of the individuals as well?? Maybe it IS best for the horse to stay out and get sound for next time
