Equestrian FEI World Championships 2022

Big mistakes for  Godinho, including some well-deserved 2s for bucking in the zig-zag.

 

Unfortunately, the main camera appears to be out of commission at the moment... Results in pretty poor Tv direction thus far.

History made for  India as Agarwalla becomes their first ever competitor at this stage. 

 

Reasonable test. Much improved since I saw them in Munich. He is very excited.

[dcro 10,211]

Direction has improved slightly, but still it's pretty bad. Highlight reels after each ride look like some cringy TikTok videos with frames going on for a second at the time.

 

Nobody broke 70% in the first session. Basquin sits first at 69.938%. Will not be much of a factor going forward though.

 

Standings

 Brown 69.674%

 

Very good start for Australia. Better than expected in their quest for the Olympic qualification.

 

 Zweistra goes above and beyond the expectations and becomes the first rider to break 70%. Ich Weiss has come of age today in Herning, that was classy.

[Agger 1,841]

Let's go Nanna! 

[dcro 10,211]

 Skarsoe wss trending over 71% for a long time, but alas, cheap mistakes happened.

 

Still goes into 3rd place so far, but will not be advancing for the next round sadly due to the mistakes in zig-zag and one tempi changes.

King Zack!

 

Still looking amazing at age 18. We have already seen two offsprings of his in this competition.

Dream start for Denmark.

Standings after the first rotation:

 

Rasmussen 76.724%

Klimke 75.683%

Zweistra 72.376%

Duerrhammer 70.839%

Basquin 69.938%

Skarsoe 69.829%

Brown 69.674%

 

Exceptional test from Rasmussen & Zack, but also from Klimke & Franz who rose to the occasion to also post a personal best.

 

Would not be surprised if Rasmussen stays in the lead for the entire first day. It was that good.
