Tokyo Eventing SJ thread

[Lexi_]

Lovely clear from Sandra.

 

[Snow Falcon]

I like this horse.

 

[Kat]

Another clear, it can be done then

 

[Branna]

Don’t like this tactical reserve thing. Feels like it goes against the whole idea of eventing.

They get so heavily penalised for it though, it is never going to be a tactical advantage to switch to a good SJ horse.

These commentators are shocking.

 

[Snow Falcon]

Yes, Starky!?

Two presses of a button and relief?

 

[Wishfilly]

Come on sandra have a pole or two

I think too much to hope for a pole after her run out!

 

[Michen]

Yes, Starky!?

Two presses of a button and relief?

How! Where are you watching it

 

[Lexi_]

A fence down for Doug. The time is looking less tight now we’ve got to the better riders.

 

[Wishfilly]

How! Where are you watching it

Red button or iPlayer

Yes! Just switched to bbc iplayer too

The time looks easier than jumping clear atm.

 

[Snow Falcon]

Laptop on Discovery connected to TV via HDMI cable. TV on red button. All watched from the comfort of the sofa ?

 

[Kat]

Jessie Campbell on now. I hope Diachello isn't too tired now

 

[cold_feet]

Red button or iPlayer

Channel 981 on Freesat.

 

[Nicnac]

Have switched to Red button. Really shows how dreadful Discovery SJ commentators are. Fabulous round Jesse Campbell!

Shame about the time fault but a lovely round otherwise! He looks well.

 

[Michen]

Red button or iPlayer

Ah thank god.

 

[pistolpete]

Ahh. The Beeb!

 

[Kat]

That was good, he's a lovely rider. Really sympathetic yesterday, I hope the kiwis can climb a bit

 

[Wishfilly]

Getting into the business end now!

 

[Wishfilly]

That was good, he's a lovely rider. Really sympathetic yesterday, I hope the kiwis can climb a bit

Not too far though ?

 

[Snow Falcon]

Steady round, shame for time

 

[Kat]

France could still be in with a chance of a medal

 

[Nicnac]

Fantastic round Nicholas Touzaint. Pity about the time fault. Remnants of Oli at Badminton.

 

[Kat]

Not too far though ?

I'm thinking team gold for GB. silver for the aussies and bronze for the kiwis

 

[Snow Falcon]

Ooohhh

 

[Bustermartin]

Lol - Love Ian - but anyone else think he sounds as if he has one hell of a hangover!"

 

[Denbob]

Thank god for the BBC

 

[Wishfilly]

Interesting Jesse and Nicolas both had a tiny bit of time but jumped clear, perhaps a trade off for taking a little more time to set up?

 

[Wishfilly]

Lucky for Kevin there!
