Show Jumping

Not an easy horse to ride at all. Tough course as well.

I had wondered why Harrie Smoulders wasn’t here. I didn’t realize he’d cracked a rib!

This Brazilian horse wants to come be a hunter. The running martingale makes him look like there’s a loop in the reins.

I have to say, is there a one of us who’s not cheering for Sweden today? They’ve been so spectacular.

No shame, I’m definitely cheering for Sweden

Put me down in the “cheering for Sweden” column. All those clear rounds have been one of the highlights of the show jumping for me.

Only one rail! Quite a nice round for Jessica. That horse doesn’t look like an easy ride.

Well done Jessica! One rail and in the time after a huge course.

Jessica is probably glad it’s over. She looked SO nervous, but rode super well!

I thought it was the best round she’d ridden all week, actually. She’s been very consistent. Frustrating to have one down in each round, of course.

Very well done for her first Olympic games. So happy for her.

Laura is a star as well!

All over for the British Ben not jumping. No medal hopes regardless.

What a shame to hear Ben and Explosion won’t be jumping today.

I hope Ward’s horse is up to this course. Fingers crossed.

Although I am rooting for USA, I would not be one bit sad if Sweden wins Gold. They have been amazing and so deserve it!

Nice round from Jessica - she always looks scared half to death but manages to put things together! She and that horse are a great partnership.

Do we know order of go for the last round? It’s reverse order of the standings, correct?

Reverse order of standings, yes. I’m having a hard time finding live scoring however.
