Showjumping Round 2: Sunday am

[nomorecold]

So MMB had a nice trip. Are we assuming that the third group will have better results?

Also, has anyone seen pictures from the barns? Do the teams do up their barn aisles like we do at shows here? It would be cool if they did to see all those patriotic setups.

I would love to see that, too!

Thanks, guys, for answering my questions! It’s very much appreciated!

I’m watching live streaming with no commentary (except what’s being typed) and it’s very minimal. Good for knowing who’s on course, but not much else.

I think we just crashed COTH for a couple of minutes!

Too bad about the stop for the Chinese rider, I like that horse…was having a respectable round.

This NZ stud has the wildest hair speaking of hair nets LOLOLOL[/QUOTE]

My friend grooms for Yamato and I guess he throws a fit when he gets braided. They believe he performs better with his hair wild and free.

Yikes… disaster at the triple combo for the Chinese rider - love love that horse though!!!

I think it is funny that the typed commentary keeps calling it a treble not a triple.

I really liked this Allah horse yesterday

Yeah - the riders can suck it up and deal with it though. Horses are allowed to be more opinionated when they’re doing the jumping.

You can have the score card open in a separate window, then you know who is up, so you can plan your coffee & bathroom breaks:
