WOW Rich!!! He is unbelievable–he made George smile, too!! That was a lot of pressure, and he delivered. It’s a 2 rail race, and that isn’t too bad, considering.

Tiffany Foster was suppose to go 13th but was pulled due to Hypersensitivity due to a cut underneath a boot therefore has been eliminated. But for some reason is still on the order to go list maybe because the Canadians were trying to appeal it. Not sure if anything has happened with the appeal or not.

YAY FLEXIBLE AND RICH!!! I almost couldn’t watch! And loved seeing him giving small pats throughout the ride- what a great horseman!

I just meant that just because she’s young doesn’t mean she shouldn’t be held to the same standards as the other team members (and I think she’s done remarkably well and proven that she deserves her spot on the team, not disagreeing with you there)[/QUOTE]
This.
YAY RICH!!!
That is your Gold medal winner guys… Bengtsson… this guy is on fire.
Woooooooooooo! RGB Clear round for Sweden!! And the team currently in 2nd place!
I actually felt sick for a while… how nervous can one get from watching showjumping???
Great for Sweden!!
Also, the Germans are out of the team medals since they are 9th now, and they only take the top 8 teams (and those tied)! That is unreal. When was the last time that happened?
GO RICH!!! Clutch performance from today’s anchor!!
Saudis are in the lead. I wonder when the horses will get drug tested (as they have a problem in that area, unfortunately.)
Absolutely love the way Rich and Pius stroke their horses after finishing, one can tell how much they appreciate their horses! :yes:
8 and ties to the second round?
Germany, Belgium and France are out!!!

I don´t think it has ever happened… sad in a way…
Way to go Canada!! Sitting in 6th and only 3 people on the team now so hope everyone goes clear next round!

I love how flexible leans into the pats Rich gives him. Very telling of an incredible partnership 
German’s win Eventing, but don’t make it past the first team round in Showjumping. Wild.

I certainly hope so, and IF they would test positive not getting a meager 2 month suspension, that was absolutely atrocious, 2 years would be more like it!:mad:
Looks like Reed is no longer qualified for an individual medal
Very sad…I was rooting for her!
France very disappointing in both Eventing and Showjumping.
Sweden ruling it in both sports.
Britain could medal in all three disciplines!
