Ooops!
Good Morning Eventing Nation! Well I have to say that last night was the first time I fell asleep while writing a post! I got home late, turned on the computer, sat down and had just started to write when I evidently nodded off on the computer screen mid-sentence. You can imagine my panic when I awoke early this morning to the horror of finding out I hadn’t gotten any farther into it than ‘Good Morning Eventing Nation!” and a bunch of mumble jumble typing from when my head was finding a comfortable place to rest on the keyboard! So anyway, that is the explanation for the late Saturday links post, hopefully you haven’t had to get up so early on a Saturday that you beat me to the late publishing of the links post, but if you have, I’m very sorry you woke up to finding there wasn’t a links post to sip your morning coffee too. Anyway, without further ado, here’s the news of the morning.

Good luck to all of the competitors today, including Playtime, who leads the Fair Hill CIC2* with rider Valerie Vizcarrando. Valerie has done a wonderful job developing Playtime, who is owned by Chris Ellis.
That’s all for now, Eventing Nation! If you are competing today, good luck (and stay dry if you’re competing on the east coast as there’s a high chance of rain in the forecast) otherwise, enjoy your Saturday!
