Olympic Team Show Jumping Concludes Wednesday, August 17

I can’t get over how adorable Tequila is!

I have always loved Edwina Topps as a rider.

Also, I am jealous of Tiffany Foster–I have coveted Triple X for the longest time.

Love Kevin Staut’s horse.

Looks like a big course with some cool fences! I want the rails with the colored bubbles!

And Mclain and Azur are up!!!

not a fan of that columbian rider. He was rough on his horse.

4 faults for McLain… so disappointing, but that double is really tricky!

Just to clarify, those riding for the team and individual qualifiers will be coming back for a second round later in the day? Or will this first round count towards both?

wow
amy miller clear
I’m impressed

LOL Ian Millar in a Stetson–it suits him well!

Eating crow… Amy Millar is clear!!
Those commentators are not up to the latest info. They said she beat her father for qualifying… nope, his horse was still recovering from sinus surgery and could not be brought back to form!!

He is always easy to spot at a show… esp. at Spruce Meadows… the guy with the Stetson!

Clear for Amy Millar goes clear and her dad is on the sidelines cheering her on!!

do these scores count to indiv qualifier or to team results as well?

I love it. I’ve only ever seen him on horses, not off!

There’s just one round today. Back to Dressage tomorrow, then back to Jumping on Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, if I’m reading the schedule correctly.

I am watching the live stream free courtesy of a one-week free trial of PlayStation Vue. Even went back and watched some of the GrandPrix Special last night.

great round by Amy Millar, her dad looked so proud

I think this qualifier round decides on the order of go and to qualify.

Question. For some odd reason my memory tells me that when Daniel Deusser was first getting started, he got caught in some sort of doping issue. It also tell me that happened at Wellington when he rode with MMB on a German Nation’s Cup Team.

But I have googled and can’t find anything about it.

Does anyone else remember this?

From what the commentators are saying, it sounds like this round is to qualify through a team and determine their order of go, and then also to qualify the top 60 through to individuals. But only the top 3 from a team can go on to individual rounds, too.

But do scores carry over? Unsure on that point.

So this round is to set starting order? But scores reset to zero?

What is considered an “good” starting position?
