Burghley..

[carrust]

..Horse trials.....Was it found guilty?

[weecalf]

Yeah looks it for the high jump

[excelsior-1]

unless it could find some way to foal the jury

[tonyav]

No, the case collapsed at the first fence, rusty.

[excelsior-1]

.....but it won't stay that way furlong

[weecalf]

Jury could not agree its stablemate

[carrust]

Ye gods.....

[excelsior-1]

so they were saddled with a dilemma

[tonyav]

I wouldn't hedge your bets on that happening, excel.

[weecalf]

We all agree no one is leading so its jocks to position

[marval]

Yes, he did it with a colt 45

[tonyav]

But who will be bridled with the costs ?.

[excelsior-1]

when it reigns ……….

[weecalf]

Was it a big burly guy that doed it

[Psybbo]

Is that Burghley or Burgers?

[excelsior-1]

I think now we all need to tread care-filly

[tonyav]

I think he may have bit off more than he can chew.

[pixie373]

Neigh

[heathfield]

A question like that is bound to stirrup trouble

[excelsior-1]

are you stirrup, er i mean still up, pixie?

[BigMac]

Defence rests.
After blanket denial, the shoe's on the other foot and will stirrup trouble.
The rider to the tail weighs in - prosecution still has the whip hand.
