Well, we are all tied up, right? Can and US with 5??[/QUOTE]
No. USA has more clean rounds, so it’s USA, Canada, Brazil.
YAY, YAY :winkgrin:!
Wow! That was fun to watch! Some incredible horses and very nice rides… and a few very game horses and not so lovely rides… but great to watch all the same. 
Dressage person piping in to say: “BOOYAA!!! Go USA jumping team! GO!”

Wow…the Canucks, USA and Brazil…the media is full of the fact that we Canucks don’t have ONE medal at all, to think our 4-legged athletes with their 2-legged pilots may get us a medal…GO Canada, the country is depending on you…[/QUOTE]
No pressure there;)
Will Simpson clear for US.
Our BBC commentator - Steve Hadley - was very taken with his horse “light as a kite, super scopey”.
Cracking round and that horse could jump the moon.

That was a blast to watch – all of the US horses looked like they were on their A game… hope they can maintain it for all of the rounds!!
Woo hoo!
Go Team USA!
Wow, that was great.
Haha, now I’m late to work but well worth it…
What is the overall schedule? It looks like this round is done, is the next one today as well? (Or did I just lose my feed!?)
USA and Canada are tied with 5 faults each.
How is the order of go for the team decided between the three (Canada, Brazil and Switzerland) tied for 2nd?

Oh you guys are all the best!
I can’t do the live stream here at work so I adore coming on here for the “Play by Play” reports! Thank you to all of you that keep us out here updated!
USA USA USA!
Go, Switzerland :)!
Oops, in my “Yay, Americas!” enthusiasm, I forgot to count the Swiss riders :lol:
These riders are all so awesome it is going to be nail-bitingly close.
I have to cheer for Switzerland too - I have a Swiss son-in-law!
But my heart belongs to Hickstead…

We’re in the same boat…
I love my Mac but this is the kind of thing that really makes me want a different computer.[/QUOTE]
you can watch on a mac, but it has to be one of the newer ones with an Intel processor… Which of course mine doesn’t so I had to watch on my husbands VERY VERY SLOW PC which froze and crashed frequently.
I can’t say I will be buying a PC anytime soon. But would love a new Mac book Pro…
I had to pipe in the usa did great but did anyone notice the big grey stallion from Belgium???
He jumped a foot over everything. AWSOME HORSE!!!
Great to see the US riders had a good start and Lantinus a clear round, very exciting! even though I am out of town and could not watch the live stream.
I didn’t get to be up to watch since
- gymnastics didn’t finish until 12:30am last night, and I do love watching that
- my body hasn’t been happy and REALLY needed the rest. I am actually looking forward to surgery to get past all this junk.
However, I got the update on my phone and saw here that our team did great! I hope, HOPE that the televised event will be decent. It certainly HAS to be better than what they did to us in dressage!
Thanks, everyone
