[JFTDWS]

Kittel and Scandic next.


sorry, I screwed up the page with the massive tangled pic :/

 

[Jackson]

Excuse my stupidity... who is in the lead now?

 

[BobbyMondeo]

if you take the three scores posted, that gives you an average of 72.111 so maybe they are carrying some over from previous rounds?? I really don't know though

seems like they are taking the average of the three scores for the GP and the GPS to get a team score for each test and then taking the average of the two averages....

Kittel and Scandic next.

Hes trotting in with hos horses chin touching his chest. Nice.

 

[PolarSkye]

Well that was a lovely test to watch . . . I do like that little grey.

Score = 75.476 . . . .

[JFTDWS]

does he sound like he's having trouble breathing to anyone?

(mild "joke" based on the PK thread )

 

[MerrySherryRider]

Here he is, the rollkur king.

btv most of the time, tbh. Not that I am obsessed with mentally drawing lines on horses in dressage...

Ugh.

[Trolley Hunter Type]

Hes been over bent through about 90% so far :-(

 

[mrussell]

I "think" what the commentator is saying is that this horse appears to be suffering from a Rollkur outline

 

[JFTDWS]

Hes been over bent through about 90% so far :-(

yep, and the tempis have been a muddle.

 

[PolarSkye]

Again with the excessive tooth grinding.

And, commentator lady, if the horse can't bring its nose forward from behind the vertical without falling onto its forehand then it hasn't been produced/trained properly.

She has mentioned quite a few times how btv and low he is hasnt she

 

[JFTDWS]

Again with the excessive tooth grinding.

oh but it's not tense, it's just concentration, apparently

 

[mrussell]

Shortest burst of applause ever... shame for the horse

 

[Trolley Hunter Type]

74.096 how? grrrr

 

[JFTDWS]

74.095% for Mr Rollkur and his poor beast of burden.

eta, unbiased commentary on HHO


eeta, can't believe his score is so close to Fuego's, unbelievable

 

[Trolley Hunter Type]

Anyone else noticed how all the Canadian's horses only have about 5 plaits?

 

[JFTDWS]

Breaking Dawn for Canada. Is that the name of a twilight book? Poor horse

Ashley Holzer looks like she is having the time of her life, grinning like a maniac! Lovely to see! (I can't really tell if it is a brilliant test or an average test, but she looks like she is having fun!)
