Live Stream of The National Horse Show

Let’s just say that if I made it to NHS and got beat by a kid whose trainer is dating/sleeping with/living with the judge, I’d be pretty mad. You’d think with all the judges out there who’d love the job, you could find one not in a relationship with someone with students competing.
It doesn’t seem to be a shining example of integrity.

I have the live feed on in the background while I’m doing some other things, and when I glanced at it a few minutes ago, I wondered who had the winning Appaloosa there. Then I realized it was the potted plant in the background. :lol:

Any way to watch replays? I doubt it, but thought I’d check

Go back to your thread on Diva.

You can on the NHS website if you scroll down, you just have to select the day/class/round you want to watch :slight_smile:

If you mean horsheshowdiva I haven’t been there in a decade.
I heard about this at my barn over the weekend. My trainer and a couple of Junior Mom’s were discussing it.
It’s possible to have an opinion and disgusted with no ulterior motive except right and wrong.
Cheating is wrong. I’ll leave that there.

I understand your concern and I don’t take it lightly but I bet a lot more shenanigans take place when it comes to placing horses to increase their value or justify their sales price. For example, trainer x is judging and it just so happens some of his horses are out for lease…how easy to give them some extra points etc

Who’s the commentator for the speed class?

FYI it’s on USEF Network right now. They’re only doing it for the big night classes and Maclay, but better than nothing!

✋ I have a hunter question. They are obviously doing their “jog” in the closing circle of their trip. Is this a COVID-19 thing, a USEF thing or a NHS/Kentucky Horse Park thing?
TIA

Covid USEF thing

If you think there is a conflict, you can file a grievance with USEF and NHS management.

Such a beautiful horse ridden by Zayna Rizvi for the win. Lovely riding as well.

Caitlin Creel’s air vest inflated during a refusal. She took it off, threw it on the ground and continued to ride. Are many people wearing air vests without body protectors in the jumper ring?

Yep. She’s the first I’ve noticed, but a bunch have been. They don’t have to wear a regular vest with the air vest.

I want to say Heritage made a Facebook post about several of their clients wearing them. With the dark jackets, you barely notice it unless they inflate. I think there might be a company that makes jackets with inflatable sections that act like an air vest.

I know of a few people who are doing this, yes.

Oh. That’s unfortunate.

Who is commentating? I wanted to listen but don’t think I can with the constant noise of one of the guys breathing in to his mic and making background noise with the rustling.

Creedance always looks so fun to me. I love the super spicy (perhaps a tad nutty?) ones.

Kent Farrington’s Creedance is so fun to watch. What a great little guy.
