Equestrian FEI Jumping Group C1 Olympic Games Qualifier 2019

[dcro 10,210]

With one more rider to go, Uzbekistan's best possible score is 104 penalties.

[dcro 10,210]

Now a huge clear for Yaniv.

[dcro 10,210]

This is getting very exciting. Israel leads by a single penalty going into the final rider rotation!

[dcro 10,210]

Clear for Waldman (nee Goldstein). Israel qualifies.

[dcro 10,210]

Brave clear for Ludwiczak ends the competition. Tough luck for the Polish team, but the Israeli were always the favorites.

I was hopeful the Polish team could pull and upset after round 1... great that at this in this qualifier things went down up until the final rider, unlike yesterday.

 

Still, the riders from former USSR were quite sad to watch... I felt so sorry for those poor horses, especially the 2nd Kyrgyz rider who just made the poor horse crash directly into an obstacle.

What a bad luck for us, once again...

A lot comes down to experience. These riders, and especially their horses, probably never saw a track as technical as today's. Group C2 qualifier featured similarly inexperienced combinations. I think all Lithuanian horses tackled the water obstacle like an event horse would (jumping straight into the water, and not even attempting to go over it).

 

Israel interestingly waited for a long time to get a clear (first one came in their 7th attempt!). And then they also had a clear in the final round, very clutch performances. They will make their Olympic debut in equestrian next year.
