    Donald Whitaker and di caprio.. 😢😢😢 I wish they came 1st place, but it’s clear that he was also focusing on speed to secure his place in the second round

    Romeo 88 looks like he lost a hoof shoe around 2:40 - 2:44 time stamp , watch in slow mo if needed , but wow what a majestic horse

    Some of the bits used are just cruel. Head tossing, mouths gapping open, tail swishing. It is past time they start disqualifying abusive owners.
  • Horse eyes don't focus like human's; they have ramped retinas and have to raise their head to see things at a distance. It's not a great habit for jumping though (their eyes are on the side of their head so they can't judge distance, that's the rider's part.) And so it may look like a horse is "fighting the bit" as they approach a jump when that's not why. Some horses wait for the jump, others want to look.
