It was likely on the show jumping side, Richard Spooner and Lyjanair. The horse has almost no tail and goes in a very simple bridle with no noseband
Matthew Brown with Alderwood was super impressive. Even though they had a mistake with the early change, what a kind, quiet correction on such a sensitive soul of a horse.
Yup! Googled and that’s for sure it. Thank you!
Agreed. Really thoughtful ride on a horse who was clearly struggling with the atmosphere.
Lots of New Zealand at the top of the leaderboard after dressage!
Ugh poor Falco! The rain starting up really added some tension.
Tim Price put in his usual beautiful, accurate soft ride – Falco is quite something!
Too bad about the bit of anticipation in the walk pirouettes and the loss a little bit of power in the canter before the changes – but otherwise - wow!
Might be a dumb question, but how come only a few riders are saluting to judges at front and sides? I’ve always been taught to salute both judges if there are more than one, but it seems like many are just doing a normal salute?
Agreed! I was so impressed by that ride. And seeing how kind he was to the horse at the end gave me goosebumps.
Here’s a tip if you want to watch a particular ride (don’t know if it’s just works for today’s feed)
as in not yesterday’s
You can scroll the right side of the screen and click onto the link with the horse’s name.
I recommend # 159 Diara just for the floppy ears!
Wow at Boyd right now!
Wow what a test in the pouring rain!!! (re: Boyd & Commando)
Holy CRAP!, the heavens open, yet he and the horse have a brilliant, steady test – total pros. I was rooting and cheering for him through the entire downpour, and they remained completely unruffled
AND THE CROWD GOES WILD!
Deservedly so.
Ugh I hear your frustration! I had a CMH account, I’m not a paid member but had it set up back when USEF network started using CMH. I never changed my password for it but after going round and round I gave up and reset the password. I thought when it prompted me to link my USEF that would solve the problem but nope…kept circling back around
UGH
The entire CMH situation has me repeating unprintable things. At a very loud volume.
it is like the Boyd and Tim show-and oh yeah, Micci too…
They are all incredible!
Who else is going to go ahead and pony up the $25 so that they can watch replays?
I already missed so many rides because of my computer problems and then figuring out how to login – both days – and I will miss most of the cross country tomorrow because I have to work until noon. And have a busy Sunday, so will miss SJ!
It’s almost worth $25 just to watch Mickey’s test
What a great ride from Boyd! His horse was magnificent as well.
MJ’s test is on Instagram. I saw it last night.
Cool, good to know!
