Gubaydullina eliminated as her horse Saint Boy refuses to go further... This is the horse that Schleu will ride!!

She made some basic errors early on and never recovered. Of the top 4 only batashova's horse has performed

Great, so the Uzbek rider has spooked the horse now for Natalya later. She traumatised that horse at that fence :facepalm:

 

God help Natalya now when she has to bring that horse to that fence. 

Strangely, it does not work that way - horses will go on strike for one rider, absolute sweethearts for the next.

Yes but if they traumatise them at a specific fence it can be an issue. Losing control is one thing but you don’t want to see repeated refusals at one fence and a rider not even giving them a chance of clearing it.
