Tokyo Eventing SJ thread

[HashRouge]

Oh thank goodness! I was willing someone to show it was possible!!

 

[Wishfilly]

Nicolas first clear inside the time!

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

I don't bite my nails but I'm tempted to start!

Re the ages thing, I know it’s not the most scintillating commentary, but it is something that stands out for the sport - most of the others won’t have competitors over about 35!

 

[Wishfilly]

He should feel like he won the gold just for going clear in the time!! love his reaction, i feel like that round has changed the vibe a bit for the better.

At this rate he might have!

 

[Kadastorm]

That was a lovely reaction, good on him!

 

[TPO]

I'm too scared to swap to bbc in case it cuts away again and we miss something crucial!

 

[Apercrumbie]

Great round from Nicolas, let's see if the others can match it!

This is all so, so tight. I can't take it!

 

[RachelFerd]

Nicolas Touzaint... cracking round - and yet another Selle Francais... hands up who has a french horse on their christmas wish list now

 

[Michen]

Go Jonelle!

 

[Kat]

From here on in we are within two poles of the lead, so based upon the way it is riding anyone going clear within the time has a chance at a medal.

I don't bite my nails but I'm tempted to start!

I feel so sick already!

Watching BBC on TV and D+ on iPad……just in case.

I reckon they’ll stick with it - we’ve got serious medal chances!

 

[DabDab]

Come on then Jung, show us how it's done...

 

[Kat]

Michael next

 

[Kat]

Come on then Jung, show us how it's done...

Hope he doesn't!!!!

God I have got butterflies

 

[Honey08]

Yes the gold they’ve already won is all over the news, surely they’ll show it.

 

[TPO]

Michael Jung masterclass coming up do we think?

 

[Wishfilly]

Michael now. If he goes clear then he could really climb

 

[DabDab]

Ooo, he's taken one...

 

[humblepie]

Chipmunk - what a shame, so well ridden for the time and only just rubbed that.

 

[Peregrine Falcon]

Shame for a pole but goodie

 

[piebaldproblems]

Pole down for MJ!

 

[Honey08]

He was lucky he didn’t have two down really.

 

[Lexi_]

Wasn’t expecting that!!

 

[Wishfilly]

Omg!

 

[Jeni the dragon]

Wrong German to have a fence!

 

[teapot]

Final list

 

[piebaldproblems]

So a little more likely that Julia will get a pole down? Or have we used up all our luck on MJ?

 

[Kat]

Wow if Michi has a pole anyone could - this is nailbiting!
