Crap, I’m late to the party and I can’t get the USEF livestream to load (and it worked fine FRiday and yesterday). Cleared my cache. Any suggestions?
The commentators need to stop opening their mouths about rails- every time they do, the rails fall!
Alex K ride was lovely!
Scope?? Scope?? God yes!
Some of the spectators in the stands are killing me. Did they not look at the forecast? Some are just sitting there in t-shirts in the pouring rain!
What’s with Luckaun Quality and the open mouth?

Try a different browser - that worked well when I was having issues on Friday.
Rain is really coming down now, if the audio is any indication![/QUOTE]
Thanks!!! That fixed it so I can watch on my computer but now I can’t Chromecast it. All this technology is great when it works…

It was open as he walked out on a loose rein, too.
Boy, that horse lives up to his name. Marvelous way of going.
Ugh, pouring rain!
Come on Donner!
I just love how Sound Prospect jumps… and Luckuan Quality… He is such a wonderful, quality animal…
What is with the first fence?
It looks “easy” relatively speaking and it is getting knocked down far more than I would have expected.
I’m so looking forward to seeing how Jung will ride this course – will he give us another magical riding lesson?
Nicely done, Elisa and Simply Priceless!

Gina commented that it’s solid on the bottom but the horses may not really be seeing the white rails on top.
Very sorry for Matt Brown & Super Socks, one of my favorite combinations. Horse just looked tired.

thanks!
I don’t have my speakers hooked up so have no sound!

I asked the same question. Gina also mentioned earlier that a lot of riders aren’t lining it up properly—they’re beginning their turn in the air, rather than riding a straight line to the base.
Really hoping that Maya Black and Sinead have good rounds! A lot of opportunity to move up here.
I’m a big fan of Davidson. I think it can be hard to follow a famous parent in the sport, but he’s found his own way, and by all accounts is a wonderful mentor to others. He probably sell some of his best young horses. He clearly understands all of his mounts and gives them confidence over the course. He’s smart, and can think on course, as he proved yesterday.
Now, having said all that, how I wish Buck could lose 20+ pounds (even if most of it is currently muscle!), and stop moving around in the saddle (especially at dressage, but also sometimes on course). He needs finesse and elegance as well as strength. Better dressage scores would give him more room on the last day. I’d like to see him live up to his full potential and win some of the big, big events!
I hate the head-on view of the triple combination at the end. It’s so hard to really see what’s happening.

he’s at the top of the sport and has been for… a decade? he’s already lived up to his full potential.
i absolutely love petite flower.
there’s so many real quality horses this year - not that a horse isn’t quality being at rolex… but there’s just so much good horseflesh this year as opposed to years prior.
