Yes really :p

 

For example, he was in 2nd place after dressage in London 2012 and finished 19th at the end with the same horse he is riding here. Perhaps Valentina meant that he is the best Italian over cross-country.

:GER Klimke 39.50 and that puts Germany in front of France, but only by 0.20 points.

Wow ... France might really win a medal. Do you think that Jung still has a chance for gold?

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.

XC and two round jumping will be influential so he still definitely has a chance.

Team standings after dressage

 

:GER 122.00

:FRA 122.20

:AUS 126.40

:GBR 127.70

:IRL 135.60

:NZL 137.50

:USA 137.50

 

France and Ireland impressed me a lot. On the other hand, New Zealand and USA were the biggest disappointments. Basically every Kiwi rider had problems except maybe Tim Price. Individually, Fox-Pitt is in the lead. I don't agree really with that as I thought Chris Burton was better (yet the judges put the Briton slightly in front).

    • Out of curiosity, I listened to a few podcasts about Turkmenistan today. This country has very large deposits of natural gas. In the 1990s, a simple a ordinary people lived quite well there. In the early 21st century, Turkmenistan signed several unfavorable gas deals with China and has practically gone bankrupt since then. 1/3 of the population (about 2 million out of 6 million- mostly young people) emigrated, mainly to Turkey, India, etc. The future of this country is blacka and uncertain. I don't know what other options they have? Russia, Turkey, the EU? Of course, in terms of selling gas. Perhaps sanctions of Russia's and isolation due to the war in Ukraine would be a chance for Turkmenistan to establish economic relations with the EU, but the new president would probably have to loosen and a little liberate up his country's domestic politics.
    • A friend of mine who visited 97 countries of the world be in Turkmenistan (with Kunshamara, are the onlyones i know) and he tell me something that never see in another country: his presence was enough to make nervous to all the people, in restaurants, markets, etc, the presence of an "outsider" generate that.
