Barbury Horse Trials - Very Scary Sequence

[Phil T]

Been meaning to post this - a lesson to all of us to be circumspect about where we choose to take pictures from:

"Ooops - bit of a wobble"

"Nicely recovered - there's a carrot with your name on it"

"Hang on - we're going left here"

"Oh no you don't - that's not an official jump"

"Oh noooooo"

"Shriek - there's a b%^&*y tog in the way now"

My better half can't half move when she wants to!!!

"Right - back on track now please"

Fair play to this young lady - she jumped straight back into the course & carried on.

Wonder if the horse ever got his carrot?

:eek: :D well caught sequence... though shouldnt youhave been pulling the other half out of the way? :thinking::nuts:

:lol: scary for you? ;) ... Great set, well caught sir.

Show her the last few, and casually say, you'd have been alright if you'd learnt to gathered the reins up properly. :naughty:

:lol:

PS. some of those jumps are a bit large too ..

Ahem - yes I was berated a tad for not demonstrating the correct priorities (how we suffer for our art!). Too right about the reins as well - but fair play to her, she did well to recover & carry on. We promptly decamped to the nice safe water jump.
