ASPCA Maclay Finals

She ran her horse into a random fence?

See now, this is really disappointing to me, because after the second round, you had 2 who, IMO, were clearly above the rest. And now they both fell apart in the test, and I think the winner is going to be someone who really didn’t actually answer one of the questions asked in the second round.

Sometimes a test isn’t the answer.

I think it’ll be Sam, Brian, Paige, and of those, only 1 should have been in the test in the first place if you were going to test. Very disappointing.

Don’t get me wrong, both boys are outstanding riders, but they didn’t do the hand gallop and they shouldn’t have been rewarded for that.

For who asked: Walter “Timmy” Kees and Chance Arakelian will be judging the Maclay, and they also designed the course.

I agree with you!

I think Coco was thinking about landing on the counter lead, but I don’t know how she didn’t see that fence in the way. Oh well!

Interesting day. I loved the initial course so much better than the Medal. Hated that course even though I don’t remember it. Ha!

Yup. Penis points. Having said that, I don’t necessarily disagree with the judges’ decision to have a final test, and if the girls hadn’t handed it all right over to the boys on a silver platter I bet some others would have been fine with it too.

Are all the Canadians missing this? That would be a shame.

I think you capitalize the P in the word points, too.

Still no results? Suspense is killing me


Results are up on the NHS website

Thanks! Wow, that must be a disappointing day for Emma and Coco. Darn. And darn on rewarding the lack of hand gallop in round 2. Disappointing for all.

Nice of them to make a big deal out of it being a male winner, because as we know, men are at SUCH a disadvantage in this sport. /s
