I’m going to try and finish watching the team riders. Have scheduled all my client emails so have a bit of a lie in pre second session at 9am/9.30?

My first Teams meeting is at 9.15 and I reckon I can get up at 9 after 6 hours sleep with no bother at all ?

I do like this horse - don’t see many duns at this level

No he was a bit unsettled!
I’m going to watch until Jonelle and then go to bed.

Yes Flamenco is lovely. I thought his score would’ve been higher. I liked his test.

Lovely horse but again for me didn't seem quite connected and supple enough for the higher marks. I'm sure there's more to come in future though.

GdR a bit tight and tense -but rider not giving marks away without a fight!

The German test looked wonderful. I’m surprised that didn’t take the lead for Julia.
Right, I really must be off to bed. Night all. See you tomorrow.

Not surprised at all - didn't have the lightness of Alex's test, nor the supreme obedience of Oli's. Lovely test nonetheless. In it for the long run now ... Night all!

Just me talking to myself now, but have to say, LOVELY test from Glenfly, flying the flag for the ex racehorses this week.

For the score I found that a really pleasing test to watch...maybe I'm going tired!

Spanish chestnut - tension or lame? I’m erring towards just tension but looked a little dodgy before she boiled over

I thought lame at first but yes erring towards tension after seeing the rest of the test!

Looked unlevel in walk, but have found this with super tense thoroughbreds before, so would give the benefit of the doubt myself
Bellaboo18
Well-Known Member
Although actually no, she doesnt look right at all in a chilled walk outside of the arena...I'll go back to lame

Yes deffo unlevel in walk. But rhythm disturbance behind prior to that. But yes, benefit of doubt, it certainly wasnt consistently off

Did anyone else spot Tayberry ridden by the Hong Kong rider who used to be ridden by a member on here? If I recall he used to be a bit wild XC so could be an interesting watch. I would have liked to watch his dressage but gave up and went to bed after Alex will have to try to watch it back.
