There are horses going round badminton and other top level events at 19, there is absolutely no reason why he won’t absolutely boss it.I feel like Tina went to to Bicton with her A-Game. When was the last time she had a top 10 placing? Luckily for her, it’s not far to travel. Wonder how Banksy will cope at Badmiton GR. He’s more than capable but he’ll be 17/18 by then. As game as he is I’m not sure he will cope with it.
I bought my boy at 15. 11 years later he’s still competing and riding away.Have you seen Classic Moet? She’s 19 and a cross country machine. Never understand why people write horses off in their mid to late teens.
Regardless of the fact 17/18 is not too old, isn’t he currently 15? And Badminton is in 6 months time….?I feel like Tina went to to Bicton with her A-Game.

I disagree. Banksy is well cared and looked after well. 17/18 isn’t old at all - my horse is 23 and still hunts!I feel like Tina went to to Bicton with her A-Game.

In what way won’t he cope? Tina doesn’t hammer him so unless he is unlucky he will still be going at 17/18 which isn’t for a couple of years yet. As long as Tina keeps her nerves at bay both will cope just fine espicially if she knuckles down over this winter like she did last winter. I may not be her biggest fan as she is a bit OTT and screechy for my liking credit where credit is due she had done well to qualify for the grassroots championships.I feel like Tina went to to Bicton with her A-Game.

I agree with the whole commentHave to say I think Meg was under marked on both counts. I'm not saying she deserved a 22 or anything but I don't think Jam should have been mid 30s. And there is a bias towards warmbloods often. I've sat in car with judges who state as much. Shouldn't happen but it does. That fence 2 she fell at looks like a big boxy thing I wouldn't want to hit that fresh into a course either .
This!! I’m a huge fan of Meg, but the judge at B/E would see that she isn’t square behind. I didn’t think it was Jam’s best test, she is built a bit short in the neck and normally looks softer than she did at BictonThe halt isn’t square though?!
