A sumo wrestler statue, whose backside may have rankled the horses, has been removed from the Olympic equestrian ring.

Mexico eliminated too. And they started so well.

 

Irish chances are improving...

Not when they don't start

Sweden. 11 starts, 11 clears in Tokyo.

 

I have never seen anything like this in show jumping.

This Swedish team!

Oh damn. Rodrigo Pessoa's horse spooked at numerous fences, had a refusal, but Pessoa somehow drove him home to qualify Brazil for the final.

 

This was so close to a disaster.

I hope Sweden don't do an Ireland and fail tomorrow after such an amazing performance so far.  They deserve gold

qualified for the team final.

Netherlands was in big trouble but somehow survived (one more fence and they would have been out).

 

Argentina fluked, but they did nothing special. They just got lucky that Japan, Ireland and Mexico incurred eliminations.

We are lucky to be in the team competition for starting, remember Canada.

Hope for a medal for  today!

 

They deserve it I think! 

 

Good luck Malin, Peder and Henrik.
