Individual Showjumping Final Thread

That's me singing Scotland the Brave not Scott, he's concentrating...

very close one at the water but

HE'S CLEAR!!!
 
WOW WOW WOW . . . heart stopping moment at the water but clear and WELL inside the time. Simply amazing riding - Hello Sanctos has SO much scope. And breathe . . .

Next Rich Fellers and Flexible for the US.

P
 
What a star he is - Scotland's Showjumping Golden boy today, whatever happens in the next round.

Rich Fellers now and Flexible.
 
Another one close to the water but no faults there... Just the one fence for Rich Fellers in the last combi and one time fault to finish on 5.
 
Love this little horse by Cruising . . . little and powerful . . . clear at the water, unfortunate pole on the final triple and a time penalty :(.

Next up Ian Millar on Star Power for Canada.

P
 
Nice round from a sympathetic rider . . . just the unfortunate one fence down - the white stile again.

Gerco Schroder for the Dutch on the aptly named London.

P
 
Mike's telling us on the BBC about all the times Schroder's screwed up... Little harsh I'd say!
 
Pius Schwizer for Switzerland on his very thoroughbred-y mare Carlina IV . . . she's lovely and looks like she might be useful eventer.

And another clear with a time fault.

Kamal Bahamdan from Saudi Arabia on a horse - not typing that name - far too long!

P
 
I do like the KSA dark green matchy matchy - fly veils, jackets etc - it's just lovely, especially on this darker bay beast - lovely mare!
 
great clear for the KSA but one time fault again - it really does sseem quite tight for time at the moment.
 
I love that little mare . . . she jumped that track with a smile on her face . . . but unfortunately another with a time penalty - so still only four clear and inside the time.

Another Saudi rider now Ramzi Al Duhami . .

P
 
Poles for Ramzy at the final combination, three down, but well inside the time (pushing on a little much?)

finishes on 12.
 
Shame - another to hit the white stile, clear over the water, clouted two fences in the triple and ended up with 12 pens (but inside the time).

Now it's Marcus Ehning for Germany on Pot Bleu . . . watchout . . .

P
 
"Everyone's idea of the perfect classical rider" apparently. And there was me thinking about Nuno Olivera :p

Looking good so far for Ehning - Clear inside the time.
