Sam Griffiths' Sam Griffiths Blog - Burghley 03/09/11 "Phew!!"

Well, i have to admit to feeling pretty nervous about going first today! But we did it and happy was just brilliant! He really flew round and it was a huge buzz coming through those finish flags. As I expected the course rode as big as it walked so it was a serious adrenalin rush to get round that. I then very much enjoyed being able to sit back and relax whilst watching everyone else do it! Happy has pulled up really well and looks a treat. It's all very close at the top and we're currently lying 8th with not much breathing space so keep everything crossed for me that those poles stay up tomorrow....! Sam
