https://resulting.chioaachen.de/show/34/event/238/competition/5/result/
McLain was 2nd
Katie was 13th with 1 time fault.
Laura was 30th with 8 faults.
I’m assuming Natalie only brought her Nations Cup horse and wanted to save the jumps!
It was a STACKED class.
He can be on my Olympic team any day of the week.

It took me a little time to dig through my phone and assemble a pictorial. I hope these come out in the right order.
Extreme baby picture- maybe three weeks old or so?
I think here he was a long yearling on the left with his weanling brother next to him on the right.
Their esteemed babysitter with them in all his retired, muddy glory.
Their babysitter back in the day, a little cleaner.
The youngster applying what he learned from Authentic and winning a class this winter during World Hunter Week at WEF.
Looks like he paid attention at Uncle authentics knee. Nice horse.
“The kids are all right.”
I think his younger brother was also listening closely, but he has not shown yet, so I don’t have any photographic evidence of it so far. Fingers crossed. 
I would too!
But didn’t McLain say he thought he was too green for the Olympics this year or was that a different one? 
I was actually referring to McLain on whichever one seems most likely to be good.
Oh that too! LOL
Agreed! That was a great ride, fingers crossed it earned him his spot! 
Does anyone know why he had to retire Ilex in the opening class?
Just guessing but he probably used the class for a light tour of the arena. Calming the brain, saving the legs. Nations Cup is today with Ilex going last in the US rotation.
Thanks!
Speaking of both Authentic and Aachen.
US Team unfortunately not making it through to the second round of the Aachen Nations’ Cup:

That was kinda harsh! Their scores were far from abysmal. Did anyone watch? How was Ilex’s round? Was he goofin’ off?
Was Laura Kraut on Baloutine for the clear?
According to the link that was posted Laura was the only clear, everyone else had 4 faults each .
Yes, she was on Baloutinue. Here’s the start list with the horses’ names:

Thank you! I couldn’t tell from the expanded link above who she was on.
