if it is in the same place it was many years ago, it is at least a 45 minute walk from the campground.
long cold walk early on the Sunday morning, but I loved being there live to watch.

I knew NOTHING about eventing. I was about that age, andhad only been riding a year or two. It changed my life.

I was trying to figure out what the schedule was last year for a similar number of horses in SJ and I believe they all jumped as one group. At the very least, I could find no indication of a break.
When does the show jumping start today?
I believe they said a few minutes ago that it would be a 10:30 start for the four star.

Thanks. Was anyone spun at the jogs or not presented?
It sort of looked like it was towards the back of the property, maybe up the hill from the indoor? But I couldn’t quite tell for sure.
I believe the only one was Falco, who was sent to the holding box and then withdrawn.
Actually, I think there were one or two others that were not presented in the first place, but I don’t recall the names off the top of my head.
Thanks
I looked for it just now, and the listing said 10 AM Eastern on ESPNU.
I went to the regular ESPN first and came across SportsCenter, which did not interest me at all. Lol.
Someone posted them here earlier… One was Jarillo. Just saw on his own Instagram page (jarillo_not_so_official) that he had an overreach on XC. He is a brilliant young horse and I hope we will see more of him soon!

Did anyone catch which horses won the best turned out awards?
You would think if they could show the jog for an hour and a half, they could have shown another five minutes for those grooms to get some well-deserved recognition.

The jogs? It has always been by the tall announcer’s stand where the steeplechase field is (was?).

I heard that the 4* went to Marco Polo’s groom.
Yeah, it would have been nice to see that.
Or maybe they do it as part of the presentations at end of the 5*?

Thought this was pretty funny. Always enjoy Anna’s good spirits on socials.
Not sure how to make the link so it shows what it is. It’s Anna Buffini in the water holding smartpaks like a guy who just caught a fish.

if you have ESPN on internet they have many channels. It is listed as being on ESPN 1 or 2 on regular tv, but the s/j in Ky today looks like on demand or roku
Is there any place online to watch individual rounds from XC yesterday, or do you have to have a premium subscription somewhere?
college championship in Ocala is on ESPN1 now
I found it, thanks!
I was chuckling a little bit at the commentators trying to explain the whole concept of equitation in a palatable sized bite for people who know nothing about the sport. They did a pretty good job of it.
I will say I don’t love the fact that they are using the word “lazy” to describe this horse. That language sounds a little pejorative to me.
I’m sure the horse is doing his best.
