Once upon a time I wanted to open "Random confessions thread". This would be perfect material for it.

Also 3 m platform. There is a pattern going on there.

Maha Gouda nevertheless qualified in women's 10 m platform.

Oh, right... Who the hell posts results like this though?

So... Men's 3 m springboard - Mohab Ishak Men's 10 m platform - Youssef Selim Women's 3 m springboard - Micaela Bouter Women's 10 m platform - Maha Gouda

Can you find any news on African qualifier? @thepharoah @sami-eg

Because OLD stands for Oldenburg breed. By the way, Total Hope is a son of Totilas (as you may have gathered by the name).

Internationales Festhallen Reitturnier (Frankfurt)... Nurnberger Burg-Pokal - St. Georg Special Isabel Freese (Total Hope OLD) - 77.610% Kira Wulferding (Bonita Springs) - 76.293% Lena Waldmann (Cadeau Noir) - 75.854% Louisdor Preis starts tomorrow with Grand Prix... And in case you are wondering what the hell are Nurnberger Burg-Pokal and Louisdor Preis? They represent annual championships for developing horses in Germany, and pretty much the reason behind German dressage domination.

Olympic qualification standings after Day 3... Men's 470 12 20 37 56 Women's 470 18 30 34 It's already pretty much a done deal. Only a slight chance for Thai men.

Apparently Micaela Bouter won the women's 3 m springboard event.

African Diving Qualifier was supposed to end in Durban today. But there is no info whatesoever about it, not even on the SA Swimming Federation Facebook page.

Congrats.

Yeah, poor Lisa Carlsen didn't have the greatest championship comeback (first since Seoul 1988). Her score was the one you get for elimination in speed competition (worst finishing score + 20 penalties).

Maybe this is not over. I wonder what happens if FEI was to hasty in awarding the spot to Argentina? In any case, Canada will be taking this to CAS...

Well, good thing I only tuned in for the final then.

That was nice and simple from Khramtcov.

Our team is doing a fine job so far. Too bad this doesn't count for Olympic qualification.

The Last Emperor is quite fascinating.

Like I said - Canada.

Canada will be able to send one individual. Lamaze not getting selected would be surprising.

Here it is. Argentina gets a team (what a joy this must be for them), while Canada gets an individual spot instead... I just can't believe Canada will only have a dressage team. It's the complete opposite from Rio.

Is it a boy or a girl?

Finally some good results for Mathilda Karlsson... She overtakes Thailand, but is still well behind Hong Kong. Hong Kong riders still don't have MER though, so there may be some hope yet.

You clearly meant to say ...0 here.

Story on Brazil losing their dressage team It's like I suspected all along. What a bunch of amateurs! Brazil had a long tradition of hosting 3* events, and this year they for whatever reason downgraded them to 2* events. It's the purest form of ignorance.
