This is a really tricky course.
Bertram Allen up next.
The pride of Enniscorthy.
8 faults.
Disappointing
Brave effort from Frerichs there in the women’s steeplechase going so early to try and negate the faster finishers. Glad to see her hang on for the silver. Chemutai just had too much for her.
Germany’s Bertram Allen makes a hames of it
You’d feel sorry for Bertram.
He’s trying to crush the stereotype that top level show jumping is just for spoiled little rich kids.
The horse may sleep with one eye open tonight.
Darragh Kenny is sure to keep the Offaly run going
Another lad fucked it.
Saving ourselves for the team event
Is Cian out of it now or do they get to jump again?
Whens that? All these Swedish lads will be hard stopped.
Gone I think.
Qualifying round Friday
There’s little room for error.
Gone.
Only the clears with no penalty get to jump.
0.45 of a second is cruel.
There’s another one on 88.45 as well so maybe they’ll appeal together
A single extra stride
Look at this self indulgent bitch hobbling down the track. Thinking of the headlines no doubt.
This is true
I was very surprised to see than Cian looks to have a right oul gut. Surely the poor horse could travel better if he lost weight, or are they handicapped?
