Yes, that is Paul Tapner jumping 6ft topless!

Falls were Mary King and Anne-Marie Styles, they were both fine. We also got the only horse fall of the day on video, where Coolys Luxury studded himself. He is now being treated with a haematoma - hence why the video is not included in here out of respect.

Overall winners were Pippa Funnell and Billy Landretti, who beat Piggy French with Jakata in 2nd and Laura Collett with Rayef in 3rd.

It was a very eventful day, with 12 eliminations due to falls. The water jump was subsequently taken out of the course after about 5 falls in the space of 15 riders. (approx!). All riders are fine, and as well as the horse mentioned above one other is being treated for serious tissue damage after running through the course fencing.

Also met up with lots of people which was lovely! Was fab to see everyone :)

Videos are all mine (much of the credit goes to my sister for videoing some of these).

  • Wait im confused....this is blenheim horse trails isn't it?! :S

    If not they're basically the same event!

  • @DressageMaster100 No this is Barbury haha back in July :) they're quite different in setting! Blenheim is set with the palace in the background in Oxfordshire, whereas Barbury is more on the rolling downs in Wiltshire :)

  • Jumping 6ft topless wearing a tie... as ya doo... lol

  • @bridled Oh no! oh dear :L bless heer what a shame, her horse was a tank!

  • azm150 - they've been using frangible pins for AGES, but they have only just brought in backwards pins, there are also completely collapsable jumps and polystyrene logs that break in half if a horse hits it too hard, so they aren't really just starting to make jumps like that.

  • @azm150 agreed, the frangible pin on the corner fence where the second rider to fall in this video fell saved them from a rotational, they're life savers - literally! thanks :)
