No Excuse and Pencos Crown Jewel both jumped double clears but had easy runs in the open intermediate before Millstreet, which is their next goal.
Shannondale Nadia thought the showjump fillers were unusually spooky but was back to her normal reliable self across country, jumping a lovely clear.
Meanwhile, Lordships Graffalo was having having an amazing Intermediate debut at only six years old; a 25 dressage, clear showjumping, and clear all the way to the last jump on the cross country – only to duck a bit too low at the “hat” over the jump and tip Ros out the front door!
