Team Show Jumping Medal Round

What a beautiful ride by Laura!

THAT ROUND COULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED TO A NICER PERSON!!! GO LAURA GO!!!

YAY LAURA! I was so worried about Cedric at this level but it looks like he’s really found his big boy hat and is doing absolutely AWESOME! :smiley: happydance

Come on Shutterfly…I LOVE this horse

GO LAURA!!! she got it by what, .2 seconds??!

Yay! Laura!

That was very well ridden. That horse looks like he has his own agenda at times!

She looked thrilled. There was a hard rub and the next to last fence and I think she thought it went down.

Ok so I’m one to not care much about the hair, these girls are here at the Olympics and can do whatever they wanna do with their hair, it doesn’t take away from the fact that they are some of the best riders of the world.
However, what is it with Laura’s helmet??? Her harness is sooo loose, if she came off that horse her helmet would go flying!!!

And yay!!! A clean round!!

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Laura!!! Chick power!!! Gosh did Cedric jump beautiful or what???

I’ve seen 6, 7 and FIVE[/QUOTE]
I think it is supposed to ride at 6 strides–five will blow your in to the vert and 7 would mean you stepped in the water…

Yay!

Shutterfly=4 faults (with eyeballs hanging out…gosh he’s spooky)

Noooo Shutterfly! That sucks! But it’s good for the US :slight_smile:

Anyone else think Shutterfly looked a little spooky today? That was odd. But not a bad score nonetheless!

Haha, yeah, Laura’s harness is waayyyyy too loose. I understand not wanting it tight, but it should at least be touching her skin!

And Canada…we’re sitting at 16 total faults as well…I’m gonna barf with nerves

Pete McMahon has had a fall at practice jump - they think broken collarbone. So no Wild Grey Mare.

CHICKS RULE RULE RUKE…EDWINA CLEAR

How is Edwina going?

My updated score page has Peter McMahon and Genoa listed as ‘NS’ - anyone know anything more than that? Edited, just saw Janie’s post. So sad for Peter and AUS, hope he’s okay though!
