These are some tired horses.
I love this horse (Eres Tu, right?). He looks like a very fancy Budweiser Clydesdale (that’s a compliment).
It was not asked for on the posted course. So I don’t think anyone can be penalized for not doing something that wasn’t asked for in the first place.
He can come live in my backyard anytime.
Damn it Brian, I knew you jinxed someone by saying that.
Lol. Uh oh.
There’s an opportunity for a hand gallop to the last jump if you want to take a shot at it for extra credit. But it’s not specified on the course.
Kyla’s horse? That’s Kenan
No, it’s Kenan!! He’s a very beautiful giant. I too wish he would fit in my backyard
The way that Waldo arches his neck and pricks his ears so much on the last stride is so cute lol
I GAVE YOU THE COURSE MAP. I told you there was an opportunity to hand gallop. Not my fault if you’re cross-eyed from writing all day and you can’t read for comprehension anymore.
The first few riders did get up to cruising speed.
Rawr.
Ok, I am sorry, but I thought Waldo looked a bit poor in his body condition at WIHS and I still think so. He’s so wonderful, might be time for him to enjoy the spoils of retirement.
It’s okay, it’s not like she’s going to be a (double) doctor or anything…
Not to mention the people.
Nice ride by Addison!
Come on, Alex. Lay one down!
Earlier I was commenting that some horses have visibly lost flesh throughout the indoors season and I think he is one who has felt that stress.
Alex… go get it, dude.
Alex seems to me like he still feels the nerves pretty hard when he’s in the pressure cooker - it happened at USET finals and I feel like I’m seeing it to a subtler degree here, he’s overriding a touch.
He’s still young though, IIRC? He has more years to settle into it a little.
