Gille’s horse looked like he was just on a Sunday stroll. What an incredible animal.

There have been some rides that make the course look so easy and clean. And then there have been some pickup sticks trips that make you realize it is NOT.

I appreciate that the time allowed for this qualifier seems quite generous. Lets riders take a little time if they need to.

It’s challenging for sure. A few options in strides and especially 7-8 I think is tough because you come out of a short turn off the rail to a wide oxer to a forward distance. Horse stride size seems to be a real difference maker.

For those not watching, there were seven clear rounds in the first rotation, with Laura Kraut leading the way with the fastest clear round. Yay for her!!
Quick drag break for ring maintenance, then the second rider from each country will go.

For how big the ring is, it seems like the jumps all come up very fast.

Almost everything is a related distance, if not an actual combination. Lots of long bending lines across the ring, only 4 turns around a corner/end of the ring.

so excuse my ignorance, but it looks like this qualifer has two riders per team. Is that right? Why not three? If that is so, how would they decide who goes?
Three per team
There’s 3; they’re in rotations however. currently we’re on the second rotation so after this, the third riders will go

But I don’t see the third rotation listed. pardon me, I just got up, and do not follow sj that much. I Only see this group of second riders, and I see the first round, but I do not see a third round. I am probably still asleep. OK, I was asleep. I do see it now. sorry!

Anyone know where I can find an order of go? The one posted earlier in the thread doesn’t seem to be accurate
Dorai seems like SUCH a sweet honest horse. Tried really hard.
Daniel Coyle made that look like a FUN ride. In a snaffle!! What a scopey horse too. Methinks he grew up fox hunting.

You have to click on “start order” and then it will sort by order of go.
The depth in GB is unreal right now.
Says a lot about development of the horse sport over there.
Harry Charles is only 25 and doing his SECOND Olympic Games.
Unreal.
