NO medal for the US in dressage

78.596% for Steffan…

Gold- Dutch
Silver- Great Britain
Bronze- Germany
4th- US
5th- Canada (?)

anybody else not suprised?

Well, I think the US team did really quite well considering. I should think the Germans are smarting a bit, and I’m truly happy that the Brits did so well. I’m looking forward to watching Laura B’s ride once my freezer repair man has gone :slight_smile:

The Dutch? I’m not enjoying watching them ride, much. Though Totilas is a phenomenon, to be sure.

The Dutch clearly have some amazing horses. I wish I could respect their riders more.

Thrilled for the British!

On the bright side, this does qualify the US to send a team to the Olympics, since Great Britain is automatically qualified as the host country.

I have to say that Laura B’s ride gave me goose bumps… her and her father do an amazing job and are kind to their horses in trianing! I think it was better than Totilas’s.

On a bright note, it was nice to see Courtney standing on the side lines to route on Steffan!!

And Steffan came in 3rd individually… SUPER!
