Ahhh! 1 time fault for the Argentinian rider…he was astounded when he looked at the clock.[/QUOTE]

I have to cheer for Nick Skelton…7 Olympic games at age 58 is impressive! Plus, I adore how cranky he always looks, but the big smile at the end of his round today was precious.
MMB is high on my list, too. Having a woman take gold would be fabulous, but honestly be happy to have anyone riding a Swedish horse end up in the top three. :)[/QUOTE]
too bad Ian Millar is not there (due to his horse’s health), but it would have been his 11th Olympics at 68 or 69?

Exactly - time was 80.25. Poor guy!
It took me two live streams to realize the British commentator was saying triple combination not TROUBLE combination. :lol:

They say “treble” in England so that’s what you’re hearing
Beautiful ride by Edwina!

Love her little mare!!!
GO little Nino!
have always thought Steve is the Roger Federer of show jumping.
Martin Fuchs must wear a cup. He slams into the pommel after each jump. Ouch!
Oh no that’s gone to pot Yann…
Hmm…maybe that jump off IS affecting our riders. Yann and First Choice just had 12 faults.

Agreed…that would have been wonderful! I love that these guys are still competing. It gives me hope.

Will see if it affected Tiffany and/or the Germans… Eric did not jump so his mare is more rested!

It’s not very user friendly- here in UK I’m on http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/live/olympics/36777559
Tiffany and Tripple X have 4 faults at the last fence. Also a very weird leg-dropping sort-of swim through the big oxer before the last line, but pulled through that one clear.
Ohhh - cheap rail. Bummer for Tiffany.
Tiffany that was so beautiful until this darn last fence!!
Loved Eric’s reaction!
Ah Tiffany! Last fence gets her!
