Today's dressage

Thanks. ;-)

I think I'd rather look at Maximus than Parzival, to be honest - at least the computer-generated one has some spirit left... And I enjoy your running commentary more than the one supplied by BBC anyway.

Perhaps we could link the BBC to this thread and ask if they'd like to pay me to commentate in future? :D I'd fit riiiight in :D

Richard Davison next... Nearly wrote Peter Davison, but I don't think Doctor Who does dressage :D
 
Artemis, the horse, which for the scientists viewing is just a piece of genome browser software... Horse is much more attractive than the Artemis user interface though...
 
nice extension and more nice passage though...transition to piaffe a little sticky but nice piaffe once in, lovely piaffe second time round.

Apparently he trained with the SRS, much liking for him :D

nice changes and canter HP, decent piris, but now having a bit of a spook

come on team GB (or even non-team GB) :D

The Brownlee brothers got gold and bronze in the break :D

Did anyone see Richard's interview after his first test? Where he said riding Artemis into that arena was like taking a scared child on his first day of school? Adorable!
 
she looked like she was swinging her leg right out in the one times. big spooks now and a wrecked piri - does seem very tense


it also looks very fat to me :o I hope it's a conformational illusion :eek:
 
73.222 for the italian. eta, I would define her spur use as significant, rather than light, too...

Now the very sexy Carvalho and Rubi for Portugal
 
Just seem this on facebook from the equestrian team gb page for anyone who cant watch online and doesnt have the extra olympic channels

We've just heard that the dressage will be live on BBC One at 2.30pm, just in time for Carl's test
 
I just felt the most amazing shooting feeling in my stomach in that piaffe, I could watch these two all day!


and these piris are to die for :eek:
