It’s a picture perfect day here at Fair Hill. I was surprised at how many horses looked a little…what we call stiff…this morning, given the excellent footing yesterday. The jog strip here at Fair Hill is extra long and hard and quite a few of the horses looked good in the first 15 steps and then started to ‘stiffen’ in the final steps of the jog.
In the CCI3*, Baba Creek was held and spun on reinspection, and Daily Edition did not present at all this morning. Sir Donovan was also held but accepted on reinspection. 23 horses move on to the show jumping.
In the CCI2*, there were six holds. Widespread Panic withdrew from the hold, and Umi was represented but did not pass. The other horses who were held passed on reinspection.
Update: Check out pictures of the jog from the COTH.
Go eventing.
