Go Kilrodan Abbott by CLOVER BRIGADE!! Clover Brigade is a retired International Show Jumper and the foundation sire for my lovely group of Irish Sport Horses!! He is a WONDERFUL horse and is producing equally wonderful horses!!! ;):):):)
Scrappy mare a little too feisty and eliminated.
Heck of a save for Sharon White!
Pwynn, I think they had the wrong horse labeled on the feed for a few minutes.

Sharon Retired???! Oh no
Man, this course seems tough, but at least itâs tough in the right way I guess!
That was a big freaking trot fence!

No kidding!
Great ride for will!!! Think it said he took the lead?
(Iâm at work, canât have the sound turned on!)
Awesome ride for Will Coleman - yay!! So sorry to see Last Monarch retire
32 is slow slow slow but finished!
Damn it. They are not showing anything of Kateâs trip.
Kate just finished clean, HUGE smile on her face. Not sure if she had time or not.
Kate finished just over 12 minutes with a huge smile
lunch?
wow WFP made that look effortless. And sad about sharon. i was really enjoying her round!
I already thought WFP was the coolest ever, he just made that course look easy but his post dressage interview on EN yesterday sealed it for me - he is so humble, all he could talk about was how great his horses are - the only thing he took credit for was a mistake he made and the horse covered for him - love that!!

Thanksâthey showed her last fence. TV had her faster than the score board is showingâŠwonder if there is an issue.
Would have love to see some of the roundâhopefully they will have some online laterâŠbut will not hold my breath.
But two 4* RookiesâErin and Kateâbeing total rock stars! Hope everyone is sound tomorrow and has a great SJ!
Just came in from teaching. Saw William Fox-Pitt making it look easy peazy, but crikey! what happened to everyone else out there!
So glad to see that the penalties were going in with glance-offs and such. Much happier to watch. Tough course.
They talked about that, she and her horse and several other folks are already âqualifiedâ so they are saving their horses for potential Olympic selection. In essence they got a âbyeâ in competing here based on past performances by the selection committee. So much smarter this year.
