He would have scored well on the creative aspects just not so well on the technical performance.

Artemis is 9, I want him!

 

[Santa_Claus]

Judy's horse is 11 so not old not young but he has only just really started competing at GP over last year or so.

Oww Carl off now...

 

[vallin]

They keep saying Judy's horse is young so I would guess 8/9

 

[vallin]

is he really 11???? I would of thought much younger, guess just inexperienced

 

[Santa_Claus]

Artemis is apparently 10 according to the below page...

[ester]

yup I think olympia is different too and as music sets my little cob off am not sure that helps all the time!

 

[vallin]

Richard got 75, nice

 

[vallin]

the commentary said he was 9, hmf!

 

[Santa_Claus]

oww 75% for Richard. I think that is quite fair and as said lots to come me thinks. Lets hope he stays in Britain now!!

And Richard is new commentator lets see if he can keep his lips zipped

 

[Santa_Claus]

i thought he was 9 as well (Artemis that is) we shall say webpage is wrong

 

[ester]

I would like to explain when santa says owwwwwww she means oooooohhhhhh

 

[Santa_Claus]

at you ester

Hmm nice horse but bit overbent to say least

 

[vallin]

clearly not!

 

[ester]

richard just said about the curb

 

[hadfos]

Have to say i much prefer the dressage to music,alot more interesting and varied

 

[vallin]

defo^^^^

 

[ForeverBroke_]

Now call me a hypocrite, but I really don't see how people find dressage boring!

I'd much rather watch a varied routine like this than the same old course over and over again

 

[vallin]

yeah but ppl don't fall of in dressage

 

[ester]

fleabite I think thats why the kur works in comparison to the special too as they all do different floorplans, it can get a little boring watching the same floor plan in the special

 

[Santa_Claus]

watching a prelim test 20 times is boring even when judging/scribing but I don't get bored medium upwards especially the kurs

 

[ForeverBroke_]

True True to both of you

 

[tink101]

How did Judy Harvey get 69% didn't seem to deserve that

 

[Charmaine18]

Ooooh, I didn't know my TV got Eurosport!

Adverts suck though.

 

[Santa_Claus]

i'm liking that I am in agreement of both Carl and now Richard on the whole this evening

One day I shall ride GP one day

 

[Santa_Claus]

again like Mr President its the creative marks and then although the piaffe was bad there were some strong movements which would have pulled it up on the technical side.

Will be interesting to see the breakdown as so far the site is only showing the overall

 

[vallin]

Ive no idea, especial as Mr President only got 69.5 ish

 

[ester]

If you fancy a welsh cob to do it on

that would be worth talking about

 

[vallin]

does the marking work the same as trampoline, so you get a difficulty rating for the routine, then a mark out of 10 for each move?

 

[hadfos]

Am liking what is on atm alot!
