He has a fabulous trot. The music helps that - I thought the music for the 1 tempis was a bit dire though.

 

[Equi]

I enjoyed that music

Carl on next

 

[milliepops]

eep Carl up next

 

[DabDab]

Go Carl go!

That last one scored a little higher than I thought it would. Had a great extended trot though.

Thank you! Your googling skills are superior ?

Eek, nervous now!

 

[milliepops]

that is when i need the music in the background , he never rushes their extensions even when they are a little modest (barney?) just lets it happen at the right time.

 

[DabDab]

Love watching Carl ride

 

[milliepops]

poo into passage! arghhhh edge of seat stuff

 

[Equi]

Whoopsy

 

[TheMule]

This horse does nothing for me and lots of mistakes

 

[milliepops]

arghhhhh. this music has tom hunt written all over it doesn't it. he must have done it for them.

 

[palo1]

I am not loving the music It doesn't seem charismatic/atmospheric enough for either the occasion or the horse!

 

[Wishfilly]

75% for Carl.

 

[milliepops]

ugh. 75. hopefully it will be enough. such a shame about that blip in the canterwork.

 

[j1ffy]

Hated the music! Lots of lovely moments but the piaffe’s not attractive and another to have a mistake in the 2s

 

[Equi]

Not his best test but it is what it is

 

[palo1]

I hope that is enough. Looked a bit frustrating tbh.

 

[milliepops]

very strong combinations from Netherlands and Germany in this group :/

 

[dixie]

We’ve moved up to silver in the team scores.

 

[milliepops]

this is a very attractive horse. love a white socks and big blaze combo!

 

[Wishfilly]

Bit disappointing for Carl but hopefully enough to qualify.

This is a pretty little horse!

 

[j1ffy]

In other news, I’m very pleased that I picked a projector instead of TV in my new extension earlier this year ?

 

[TheMule]

The piaffe and transitions into passage were just not good enough and the rein back was really poor- I can forgive a mistake in the tempis

 

[Equi]

Fairly teeming it down!

 

[j1ffy]

That’s some rain!!

 

[milliepops]

Fairly teeming it down!

grim, hot and wet

 

[Wishfilly]

I think the best 6 after the top two qualifiers from each group also go through?

This poor rider has been unlucky with the weather!

 

[milliepops]

very consistent 2s there but the balance looks a bit horizontal?

eta better viewing angle in the 1s where you can see the balance go downwards. I like this horse despite the mistakes.

 

[Equi]

This has been a strong one
