  • Beautiful photos and informative captions. Slide show goes a bit too fast to absorb and enjoy both at the same time. Wish I coulda been there :-)

  • VERY Disappointed ! ! !
    Boyd Excell recorded the highest score ever recorded in the history of the sport of dressage driving and you did not feature him! Also the USA took the team driving silver and individual medals.

  • The pictures were wonderful and exciting. Each horse and person with their own specialty. My hat is off to each and everyone of them. If you couldn't have been there, Horsechannel pictures are the next best thing.
