Anyone want a thread for the Olympic dressage live?

[palo1]

Brilliant. What a total inspiration and Vogue looked fabulous today.

 

[Malibu_Stacy]

GBR 78.34% (Go Carl!)

 

[Equi]

Yes I said wow to the final piaffe. He really settled well into that test

 

[Surbie]

knew it would happen I mean i get Dressage isn't the most fascinating if you aren't into it, but it would really help if they were a bit more upfront about what they were going to cover.

Absolutely!
It's amazing how quickly I can sign up for something tho - got to see most of Carl, and that was stunning!

 

[Equi]

Haha bless look at vouge looking towards his admiring spectators

 

[m1stify]

fabulous test!!

 

[Splash2310]

Fantastic test from Carl, he really pulled that out of the bag and it was a pleasure to watch!

That's it, if they aren't going to show it just tell us so we can pay for discovery. Don't tell us they are showing it then leave us hanging!

I'm really loving all the helmets! all the shininess and bling really want a new one now, glad they got rid of the top hats.

Was he smiling this time?
Also. Is there a score?

 

[milliepops]

that looked like a cracking halt from Dorothee... i see halt bootcamp in my future, haha

 

[PoppyAnderson]

Omg, wow wow wow. WHAT a test. Absolutely brilliant. Well done Carl. Nailed every move. Thrilling. Am in tears!!!

I might miss Charlotte today I have a lesson. Stupid horses

Yes, big smile! A very different Carl versus his first ride.

78 point something!

i was so nervous today, lovely to see carl smile at the end,that mark looks a little low to me but i havent seen anyone else to compare...i would have put him at 80% as some of that was so good..

I have no issue with halt, I’m also in boot camp to cut it out ?

 

[j1ffy]

Just caught up after a video call over-ran...what a lovely test from Carl!!

 

[Parrotperson]

Thanks everyone. Is 78% good enough I wonder.

 

[milliepops]

hehe
i absolutely crave that decisive step from canter up to halt, we get anchor out stopping rather than *uphill*

 

[milliepops]

it's interesting watching this horse after En Vogue, they are similar in type but En Vogue seems lighter on his feet for me.

 

[Equi]

This is a great test so far I’m expecting the score has come up again not quite as relaxed though

 

[palo1]

I loved Dorothee's extended canter!! Horse looks very long in the back which is interesting...

 

[Equi]

?? Lottie can have another new pb

 

[milliepops]

ooooh GB closing the gap.... very early days of course. but a good postion to be in at this stage

 

[milliepops]

time for cuppa and hang the washing out

 

[Parrotperson]

What did dorothee score?

 

[shortstuff99]

I'm not sure her test deserved an 80%.....

 

[Equi]

What did dorothee score?

80

 

[milliepops]

80.something
