Show jumping Friday AM

wow, nice round fro Japan. This Holst. mare was teh least excited of the bunch so far it seems. :slight_smile:

Definitely a little wild, lol.[/QUOTE]

Oh dear. She can get a little above herself (understatement). Was she really evil?
lol

Great round from the Japanese rider on California. Some interesting surpises already.

Gorgeous round for the Japanese.
The grey mare was a bit scary between the jumps but jumped beautifully.
Things seem to be starting to go a bit more smoothly now.

Our Canadian friends will be very happy with Mac Cone’s round.

Great job by Mac Cone. I just love Ole’ – I have a soft place in my heart for horses with a nice kick in the air. The best jumper I ever rode had went just like him.

I LOVED the Japanese rider. Quiet horse, quiet rider, very nice round to watch. Also, he’s not bad to look at. :wink:

And hooray, a great start for Canada!

The horses would have to be doing gymnastic routines before they’d get coverage. Maybe vaulting should be part of the gymnastics in the Olympics.[/QUOTE]

It was at one point – long time ago – and they’ve been working on bringing it back.

why aren’t the scores going up? The links in the beginning of this thread have no scores up yet? They were very quick to put scores up in dressage:no:

I have scores. Refresh the page.

bummer refusal for Alberto from Mexico. Looked like the fence was a bit of a surprise for the horse.

Scary stop for the Mexican rider! I thought the horse was going until the very last minute . . .

And Mclain pretty much needs a clear round to be competitive. No pressure though. :winkgrin: Rooting for Sapphire!

Okay, I thought a refusal was 8 faults?

Mclain’s up! At least I get to see him before I have to leave for work (barring “car trouble”, of course)!

WOO HOOO!! :happydance: Absolutely stylish - just what you expect from that pair!

still nothing can you repost the link to make sure I have the right one?

McLain is such a beautiful rider to watch. Fantastic ride.

Cool, McClain clear under time! Go USA!!!

Beautiful round for Sapphire

Yay!!! He kept the turns tighter than most and it seemed to help with the time. Nice and balanced all the way around. McLain is such a beautiful rider, the horse ain’t half bad either! :wink:
