King of the Road. What a hoot! Then Got to Get You Into My Life.
Now Age of Aquarius.
It is hard to evaluate as it is a freestyle made for each individual horse.
I understand and that we wouldnāt want them talking over the music, but it would be nice to have an announcement of who is coming in, maybe a little analysis after the ride. Announce the scores. But Iām watching at work. So itās a convenience thing for meā¦it would be nice to know who is coming in without having to watch every single second. But I guess I could look up the order of go.

Ha, cute shamrocksānever seen that in dressage before. I have dual Irish/US citizenship and have fantasized about riding for Ireland someday.
Back from the cottage! Thankfully had access to WiFi, but, honestly, was enjoying the outdoors too much to stream the Games on the CBC app. I missed the equestrian competition, great news that the US medaled in the team dressage competition
Very nice round by Judy Reynolds and Vancouver K!
I just want to kiss the pink nose of that big Irish horse!
Really enjoyed Judy Reynolds music!
I was really confused by the music for Vancouver and Judy Reynolds. Generally solid, but a few bobbles.
75.898%
75.696% for Judy, she must be really pleased with her performance!

Heās actually a Dutch horse! LOL!
Me, too.
Judyās artistic scores were very high, not so much the technical. I really enjoyed that ride.
(NoteāI have the order of go/results tab up alongside the feed to I can quickly switch back and forth.)

I loved her music! 60ās pop rock - Beatles, Age of Aquarius, King of the Road, Moody Blues, etc.
Thrilled with cbc livestream of equestrian events for this Olympics.
Hurray. Will get to watch most of the freestyles
CBC has covered all the eventing, all the dressage(except for day one of the GP for some reason ) and also covering all the jumping including the qualifier-watched some of that yesterday .
today also following the scoring at this link

COTH is doing play by play of the freestyle here:

OK, I was napping during the break yesterday, but woke up to the applause, and again today. The drags in formation seem to be a big hit with the crowd.
I loved the music from the Irish rider (Judy!)
I get that Fionaās horse is a lovely mover, but he had so many mistakes and bobbles, yet still scored in the mid-upper 70ās. Is that just because he is such a lovely mover? Wouldnāt the breaks be scored down as 4ās?
Sorry. I am Eventer, who is trying to figure out your scoring.

How have you been able to get CBC to work? A couple of us keep getting errors about ātechnical difficultiesā
I canāt watch, I get my reception with a turbo stick and there are continuous split second hesitations which is a pain. Rides do not flow. Maybe I will try the replay later. I was watching CBC live.
Looking at the scores from judges.
Susanne Baarup judges Steffen way lower than everyone else.
Stephen Clarke seems to be the highest of everyoneās scores.
Gary Rockwell scored Fiona Bigwood way lower than everyone else.
