I wonder why the Chinese rider withdrew? It must be serious, because that screws the team.
They don’t have a team, just 2 individuals.
I also see no Go pro cameras. I wonder if it is because of the new rules about broadcasting not being allowed unless it is official.
I don’t think some of the horses even see the ditch at 16B.
Watching Wundermaske’s rider stroke his neck all around the course really warms my heart .
oh! He slipped, and had a run out. the footing is bad in front of that fence. several have slipped there.
So disappointing for them
Oh nooooo
Nooo!!! Wundermaske caught a leg going into the 3rd water and Ronald popped off. Both up and looking fine
So sad for them
He got there on a wrong stride I think
how exciting to rid your junior horse in the Olympics! Lucinda did that.
That’s so sad…I’d have loved them to complete.
I don’t know why they aren’t putting limestone or something down in the slick spots!!
Another Spanish rider to cheer home!
Love the loose rein Veera is riding on - they seem like a great team!
Oh god Germany another awful trip and off this time!
Dang! the tiny ditch got poor Christoph
So that ditch is causing problems eh?
Eating cake and pulling an all nighter here on the west coast…
Almost seemed like a dressage + xc time competition after the first team rotation - super disappointed for both Jonelle and Caroline with their run-outs. The direct routes really don’t seem to be too challenging for most of the field.
And just when I type that… the German rider comes off.
Eventing!
