Oh my....so close.

 

[starryeyed]

I thought she'd gone clear!! Gutted - Silver's not bad though!

 

[dollymix]

What a shame for Sara

 

[Potato!]

Gutted for her. The Robots have won. Poor Mary and Poor Tina

 

[lilyoftheincas]

Ahh poor Sara! Feel so sorry for her

 

[Kat]

Oh gutted for the swede, was really rooting for her once I knew we couldn't do it.

 

[Firewell]

Oh no, she was so close! Just lost her cool

 

[little_flea]

GOD last fence!!! But silver is fantastic, well done Sara, what a lovely lovely mare Wega is. Her mum must be proud of her.

 

[armchair_rider]

Right time for Michael to retire whilst he's at the top and give GB everyone else a chance

 

[starryeyed]

ugh!

 

[PippiPantoPony]

What a shame

 

[Charem]

Poor girl..last fence 'n' all....

Think Micheal Jung is getting a bit greedy now. I believe he is now European, World and Olympic champion :O

Congrats to all riders, it's been a fantastic, nail biting last 4 days. Hats off to all grooms who made the horses look a billion dollars and of course to everyone else behind the scenes.

 

[Emilieu]

Rotten

 

[PorkChop]

Well is it safe to say what a complete rollercoaster

Well done to Micheal Jung

Does anyone have a link to the finalscores?

 

[ecb89]

I love love LOVE Mary King

 

[BobbyMondeo]

Feel very gutted but what a title for Micheal Jung to hold on ...and on his birthday too.

3 riders inside the top 10 though! and Team SILVER!! Brilliant!

 

[Anglebracket]

Blimmin German robot wins double gold.

 

[Leg_end]

But what a brilliant few days of competition, I've not been this excited about a 3DE for a long long time. Great job done by all And we won a SILVER don't be sad!

 

[Feathered]

Is Mary actually the worlds nicest person??? I think so!

 

[BobbyMondeo]

Does anyone have a link to the finalscores?

Bless Mary with a smile plastered on her face

 

[Fools Motto]

Can't win them all i suppose.. doesn't apply to the Germans though!

Horses are great levellers, there we go. That's it.


Now, on to the hopes our Dressage GB's can raise the roof - if there was one! and bring home the gold..

 

[Double_choc_lab]

MT has just said team bronze. Just shut up Mike I'm fed up enough now. The up from the team silver has deflated. Perhaps the medal ceremony should of been after this morning.

 

[gadetra]

Thanks BobbyMondeo

 

[georgiegirl]

I think calling the germans robots is a bit harsh! Jung looked absolutely flawless in the showjumping!

Feel very sorry for the swedish girl that the pressure got too much right at the very end.

And finally truly gutted for our brits

 

[jenbleep]

I love Mary....51 years of age and already thinking about Rio!!

 

[Merrymoles]

Can't quote on phone but well said Charem!

 

[Firewell]

Why can't we hold our nerve like the germans? GB not doing very good at the Olympics so far. First the Judo guy, then the kyacking (sp?) guy... letting the occassion get to us

 

[Honey08]

Will the presentation be straight away?
