EselTheDonkey 679 Posted September 13, 2018 #232 Share Posted September 13, 2018 By the way, did the scoring system in Eventing change? In Rio, the best result after Dressage were 37 penalty points and now Krajewski has 19,9? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted September 13, 2018 #233 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Krajewski & Chipmunk (a horse named "Chipmunk", I know) are the new eventing leaders with 19.9. That's 9.5 ahead of 2nd!! 9.5 penalties cover athletes from 2nd to 18th ranked combinations... #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krajewski's score in old money would be 29.9 (19.9 x 1.5). EselTheDonkey 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EselTheDonkey 679 Posted September 13, 2018 #235 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Thanks. Still an excellent result. Do you think this is fair or is this a disadvantage for those best in Dressage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this is fair or is this a disadvantage for those best in Dressage? I don't think it really is. Cross-country should be the most important, and there are times when dressage leaders are milking their scores beyond belief. Now there's less room to play safe. I'm more annoyed about show jumping still giving 4 penalties, it can get very influential... EselTheDonkey 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted September 13, 2018 #237 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Fabulous test for Boyd & Tsetserleg! Everybody expected Krajewski to do well, but nobody expected this from Boyd. Btw, Tsetserleg is apparently named after a city in Mongolia, what is so random and cool. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshMartini007 2,210 Posted September 13, 2018 #239 Share Posted September 13, 2018 (edited) I felt that the dressage factor was to lessen the impact from jumping. Maybe they should have added a factor to cross-country instead of removing it from dressage (it was the least important portion between the three, among the top riders).

dcro 10,179 Posted September 13, 2018 #240 Share Posted September 13, 2018 Redemption for Vaughan & Marquis. They first appeared at 2014 WEG, where Vaughan retired after Marquis spooked at everything. Then they came back at 2017 Europeans, where they were elmiinated after Marquis spooked at everything. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
