Italians keep on delivering. PB for Schivo, first time under 50 pens.

It's unlikely that some other countries will appear, which is a shame because Bermuda's only Pan Am gold actually came thanks to the eventer MJ Tumbridge. They had a whole group of them at the Olympics between 1984-2004, but nobody these days.

Ingrid Klimke incredibly good as always. You can't have it any other way when your father was just the best dressage rider in history.

Third Irish team member in the dressage, and the third Irish that made big mistakes... Austin O'Connor still got 45.20, which is alright, but it could have been so much better...

Group A is Western Europe, B is Central and South Europe, C is Eastern Europe and Central Asia. But it doesn't follow the geography that much. Finland for example is in Group A, along with Netherlands. But Belgium is in the Group B. Group C is pretty much all former communist countries + Greece/Turkey.

That was a pretty good test for the former boxer Hanne Wind Ramsgaard.

Meanwhile, Malaysia leading Philippines in netball 75-7

So what if the gold medal match finishes with 0:0?

I get that IOC is pushing for more representation and whatnot, but I think they have gone over the top here. 2 individual quotas in all disciplines for North America (and British Carribeans, this doesn't even include Mexico btw)? USA and Canada will likely qualify all teams so they don't count. This leaves Bermuda as pretty much the only nation that could possibly earn them (only in jumping and maybe dressage). All remaining quotas there could already be assigned to the overall rankings... There are also some very generous team quotas, like 2 team places for Group C in jumping. Countries like Hungary and Slovakia suddenly have a serious chance to challenge for team quotas. Same goes for Group G since Japan is already qualified. Eventing has 7 quotas at the World Championships + 1 more for Groups F/G. If AUS and NZL finish in top 7, who will challenge for this additional quota? India or South Africa?

For some reason I thought Sanchez retired a long time ago.

Unfortunately, it doesn't seem like too many people care about Universiade here (I don't think I have ever seen Croatian entries before the official Universiade entries are published by the organizers). Lack of interest pretty much culminated earlier this year when we sent a team of zero athletes to Almaty.

Cool, but I think these might still be the subject of conformation later this year.

Any word how long he'll be out?

Piggy French finishes her test. That name.

Belarus actually doing a great job in dressage. Hopefully they could complete cross-country without too much troubles.

Carlile 34.4, excellent. I have no idea who will win this. Hoy will lead dressage, but is not THAT good in other phases. Very unpredictable.

24.6 For those who don't follow eventing much, this is like Bolt running 9.20.

And that is how you do it. What a legend.

That was O.K. from Murphy. Dressage is their super weak point. And now onto Hoy-Carlile duo.

British judge tried really hard. 9 for the non-straight halt...

Heidi Larsen just became the first Norwegian eventer that entered the European arena in decades. Eriksen meanwhile exceled a lot, excellent score.

Felix Vogg into 2nd with 37.2! Awesome test to end the morning session. He defeated Michael Jung this year so he might be a serious player here. Afternoon session will be crazy, especially at 14:35. These two combinations could very well go into the 20s...
