The Americans are on the scoreboard at Burghley 2012: Erin Sylvester managed to keep No Boundaries fairly calm for most of his test, although they certainly didn’t show their best work, and he got progressively more wound up until the final halt which was sadly non-existent.
Talking to Matt Ryan for the quick post-test interviews, Erin said her horse did not like the “english weather” at all ie rather cold and very windy, but is very fit and excited to go out and attack the cross country. Good thing, because as Lucy Jackson said, “There’s no point in pretending, it’s massive! They’re going to need to be very brave and very fit.” Off to watch Kristi Nunnink represent the West Coast, much more still to come this afternoon from a decidedly chilly Burghley – Go Eventing!
