It's best it didn't work out, because they don't have the parental support they would need to get into horses, even a little bit. It might have been a big disappointment for them when their mom just...

The Orr Farm seems to need the most help.

Yeah, the post with the funny photo of her horse wearing a silly hat, and then he's gone. That really got to me.

:lol:



Yeah, same tack ... if someone rejoinders with what an expert they are, then the next conversation can commence.

Them: Oh but I'm an expert rider, I know all about everything. ...

Lesley Stevenson shared this, it's worth passing on ...

Just a few posts down are ordinary daily activity, then ...

Front gate with a lock. ;)



When asked, "No, it's too dangerous. I don't have kid horses. And my farm isn't safe for children." Change the subject, don't let them keep asking and badgering....

Thanks all for the answers to the initial question. Love CoTH for that kind of info for those of us who can't see it ourselves, in person.


A formal or informal sort of 'course evaluation' or...

That might get a horse through a performance at one event. But in the long run, in eventing in particular, isn't that heading for soundness disaster? In eventing, I would think sooner rather than...

Some 3* newbs did very well. :) :) :)

As for the dnf's, anyone who was there, or has heard, know why? Some are new or new-ish ... ?

No, he's camouflaging himself to improve chances for lunch - I think ... cold-blooded villain ... :eek: :no:

Specifics will help. How often? Now, and in the past?

What sets her off?

Then, what happens?

As exactly as you can describe it. Is she spooking at something? Resisting pressure as...

:lol: :lol: :lol: I'll build on that brilliant idea and suggest Charles Owen call the helmet style worn by Allison at Rolex "The Damm Helmet." Who knows, even notoriously cheap people might fork...

Was the route up or down the bank? Was Townend on his way up, didn't get over at the top, horse fell back down the banks? Slid off the top bank and then fell ... or fell at the top surface and kept...

USEA update


Kristi Nunnick had a fall at the same fence and also got a trip to UK ER



What's the story on two trips to ER from one obstacle?

I don't know the details of her ride yet ... but I'm delighted to see that Kelly and her good mare completed xc. They have a stop and a buncha time penalties ... but so what, they are still riding,...

Don't know the details, but sounded like a wicked fall with Ashdale Cruise Master falling down the double bank onto Oli. According to this article the horse is ok, Oli is not. A little worried...

OK now ... this will all become a happy but increasingly vague memory ... unless ... it happens again.

Allison continues choosing a helmet over a monopoly-game hat.

Others follow suit.
...

Idea. Next * where Allison plans to wear the tails with a helmet, those who plan to watch her dressage, take your helmet. After her ride hold it up in the air while cheering. Help make the point...

I heard the flapping as well. Possibly not connected with the feed itself, I believe it is the plastic around the announcer's gazebo. It's raining and the wind is blowing.

You are not an idiot. It's the website. The navigation and search were designed & programmed by chimps wearing 4-fingered garden gloves.

Go here, and only here. All other links purporting to...

For Phillip?

If you mean generally for all riders, I suggest a new thread. Could be a great discussion. :)

Had a thought - if the weather is so impactful that other riders flinch, this could be a big help to Oli Townend if he has the horses to get around in good order, no matter what. He looks as if he's...

All that has been my guess as well.

There's a "yeah but" in there ... Get to ride 4 TOP horses through dressage and pick the best scores to go on with? Not exactly a level playing field. ...

Doesn't shortening the intervals lead to more chance of overtaking and traffic jams? Especially with horses going at very different rates of speed, which is what I'd assume based on rider/horse...
