What are we going to do now that the Olympics are in the rearview?
One thing is for certain: while the Olympics may come and go, #EventerProblem are forever. Here’s your latest batch.
“I’m glad they clarified the horse is an equestrian…..” — Michelle
“Watching the xc at Tokyo and I definitely thought there was a horse called “DONKEY DAN”. I liked it in the dressage and I was most impressed by the comical name for the Australian Kevin McNabs pony. Now I know it’s called ‘Don Quidan’ I’m less interested.” — Em
Stuart fell off! 😱 Thankfully he was okay and able to get back on and finish his events but he’s a bit sore today! We always knew that this was a risk taking on this crazy challenge and are so glad that he didn’t get badly hurt- and that someone caught it on camera! 🤣 pic.twitter.com/i5qZMVp0JU

Emma: ” BBC News – the couple trying every Olympic sport 😂👏👏👏”
Catherine: “So who gave him the commentators job for the eventing show jumping on Eurosport?”
Deez: “This is how I am going to explain Eventing to non-horse people from now on. “Imagine they let a bunch of showjumpers loose in a mini-golf course and they are allowed to jump over everything.”
“So I’m sat here watching the Olympic showjumping and particularly one poor Chinese rider who didn’t even manage to jump the first fence 
and it made me think:
– You know that feeling when you’re thinking of entering an event but it’s miles away and you’re not sure if it’s worth it for just one or two rounds of SJ?
– When you do enter that event which is miles away and the bastard horse doesn’t even jump a single jump in the arena.
– Tokyo is a helluva long way to go for one bad SJ round.” — Alice
Go Eventing.
