2nd half of dressage has begun!!!

nice score for nadine and elvis

70.083…

Now Bernadette Pujals (sp) and Vincent in the ring…

Elvis is GORGEOUS!!! WOW. His piaffe kinda sucked (more like walking in place), but everything else looked GREAT!

Debbie goes at 5:15 (USA) Pacific time

Anky at 5:40

Is Elvis a bit stiff in the shoulders? His front legs looked jerky in the walk. Despite his faults, he’s a cutie. Thought the score was a bit high since there was no piafe but the overall work was nice.

Wow. I thought Cappelmann had one of the best tests yet, but she only got a 70.083. I’m surprised. Maybe I’m just startstruck by Elvis. I adore him.

Now it’s Bernadette Pujals from Mexico on Vincent. Isn’t this the rider who almost lost this horse in her divorce? I think the only thing she wanted – and got – in her divorce was Vincent.

They look beautiful together. The horse looks VERY expressive in the trot.

Thank you Thank you

There’s a Spanish rider up next, then it’s Debbie MacDonald, then a break, then Anky.

69.208 for Pujals.

That was a lovely ride by the Mexican rider, and she did get a 69. Very nice horse.

sorry about the Nadine thing, a horse named Nadine went first yesterday!

Brentina and Salinero back to back. There’s a contrast. :slight_smile:

Oh my I’m so nervous:D What time does Isabell go?

Anyone else having trouble with the live feed for dressage? I can get other events, but not dressage. Ironic.

I don’t understand judging anymore. Bernadette had a super ride on Vincent (he reminds me of Goliath from Arjen Teeuwissen). Except for the last AC-line it was almost flawless.

Nadine & Elvis lost tons off points in the Pa-Pi-Pa tour.

I’m not a fan of the horse that is going now (Domingo’s horse). He gets very rushed in his transitions. He’s a nice mover and very flashy, though.

It is amazing how many of these horses aren’t really straight coming down centerline.

Prestige is really a stunning horse for Spain. don’t know how he will score, but he’s nice to look at!

Well, darn it. The work server crashed right before Debbie’s test, so we have to just sit around waiting for them to tweak it so we can work again. Gee, wonder what I could do to pass the time? :smiley:

I think you are right on when you said they need 10 judges and to drop the high and low score… :yes:

Ok, I’m fickle, forget Elvis, I want Prestige. The man riding ain’t so bad either.

Hey, someone explain his low score? Not complaining, just didn’t see why it was that low. Did he miss something?

He’s another Ferro son. They got a 64.042

Debbie’s up!

I wasn’t incredibly impressed with Debbie’s ride… the poor horse is huffing and puffing so bad too!!! :frowning:
