ABSOLUTELY STUNNING. I watched it on TV - but I feel honored to have watched thatā¦
He got twelve 10s.
WOW ~ JUST WOW ~
Thanks for posting that score! The altech scoring site is down right now.
I bought my tickets last year with the thought in mind that Iāll get to see this horse live!!! I canāt wait till Friday, Iām like a little kid. (Shh, but I wonāt mind if he makes a mistake and loses to Ravel and Steffan, though Iām not expecting it.)
Awesome.
Question: In is blog, Brian OāConnor said that Totilas looked surprisingly small to him. Anyone know how big he is in hands?

Thanks for posting the score; as others said, live scoring down
Twelve 10s!
Iām on top of the world when I get 8s or 9s.
(In my mind I round them up to 10s!)
Ed Galās site lists Totails at 1.75m. I think its deceptive because Gal is soo tall himself.
Also, WOW!

Must be deceptive. 16.3 to 17.00 is not small to me!
I am so looking forward to the freestyle on Friday night. I appreciate dressage but come over from H/J land. Last year I told my friend we are definitely getting our tickets to the freestyle because I really want to see this horse!
On the other hand, the USEF website had a 3 minute clip of todayās highlights and it looks like the stands were rather devoid of people. People there, is this true? More alarmingly, it looked like most people were in wet weather gear. This does not bode well for us who bought our tickets the minute they became available last year and were supposedly given ābest available seatingā per Ticketmaster, only to now find out that we are in the bleachers with no shelter. Ah, yes, but that was another thread⦠On the other hand, we are having a heat wave currently on the left coast and it is over 100 degrees, so maybe a little cold and rain could be welcome.

The weather for KY is going to improve. Looks like it will be quite nice especially for the freestyle.
