Chapter 624 [Nice Lulu Obstacle Race]
Even if he gave his foal to Chen Ergou, Her Royal Highness the princess didn't have any expectations.
It would be unfair to other riders to simply touch a new horse and quickly get a good place in a regular race.
But she didn't know the dog's ambitions...... handed over the task of the live broadcast to Lulu, rode Chen Ergou of "Aesop", and began to train "improvised cramming".
I have to say that riding "Aesop" made Chen Ergou's heart a little excited.
Bred in England in the 17th century, Arabian, Spanish, and Gallowean horses were mated to produce a new breed of horses, the thoroughbred. Thoroughbreds are the fastest and best-constructed horses in the world, brave, sensitive, with a stubborn personality and a hot-blooded pedigree.
Thoroughbreds are the best racehorses, delicate and unsuitable for other purposes.
The one in front of me is undoubtedly one of the others, it has a body height that is far higher than that of a thoroughbred, at 1.82 meters. Tall, strong, beautiful, intelligent, with slender bones, prominent attachment points of tendons, long protruding muscles, long levers of limbs and strong strength, and distinct contours of joints and tendons. These features make it look slender and elegant when it starts......
Not only is it beautiful, but it is also extremely good in sprints on the track, and it also has a lot of stamina.
After running for so long, there is only a fine layer of sweat on the body.
Of course, Chen Ergou also discovered that "Aesop's" temperament is definitely not docile, and it is no wonder that Princess Margaret has almost the best horse training team in the world, but she has not been able to get it for more than half a month.
However, when Chen Ergou rode on it and ran wildly, even its trainers and breeders were lamenting that he had a relationship with these horses: they had been with "Aesop" for so long, they were too familiar with the temperament of this horse, but not only were they not enthusiastic and even a little irritable, but they didn't show it at all under Chen Ergou.
Chen Ergou felt that this was because of the [Animal Taming], even if he was not all animal friends now, but the slightly smarter animals had a kinder attitude towards him. The horses in the horse farm are all mediated and relatively intelligent, and "Aesop" is his key communication partner.
Time passes, and the warm-up ends.
The warm-up riders on the track pulled out of the way, and some of the staff began to make final preparations. The commentary on the stage, the cameras of the TV station, and so on are all in place.
The Tulip Principality "Princess Cup" obstacle race will be held at the Emerald St. Ross Racecourse.
The game time is about to begin, and the spectators who have been waiting outside the stadium for a long time are also starting to enter one after another. It was a horse race that would be broadcast on Tulip National Television, and it was clear from the faces of the enthusiastic audience that they had a high level of support for the first public event of the princess of their country.
This time, a full 40 horses were raced, including some of the top 30 in the world.
LULU EXPLAINED TO THE AUDIENCE IN THE LIVE BROADCAST ROOM WHILE LEARNING AND SELLING, SHE WAS REALLY ABLE TO SAY, ANYWAY, THE AUDIENCE IN THE LIVE BROADCAST ROOM WAS STUNNED BY HER, "AUDIENCE FRIENDS, THIS IS NOT A SIMPLE EQUESTRIAN OBSTACLE RACE." You have to understand that it's not necessarily equestrian that jumps obstacles, there's also the game of the brave: obstacle racing!"
"The most famous show jumping horse in the world is undoubtedly the British National Show Jumping Horse and the world's most difficult and highest-money steeplechase race. And the Tulip Princess Cup obstacle race, which is also held by the same rules, is held for the first time, and the prize money is even higher. ”
"Don't look at the 40 horses that will be able to complete the race, and half of them will be able to finish the race successfully. It is not uncommon for people to get hurt, even horses. In order to win the final victory, almost every obstacle has to be preceded by a tragic scene of someone on his back. ”
"The track is 4.5 miles long, and the horses will run a total of 7,141 meters and cross 30 obstacles over two laps. The 30 obstacles are divided into 16 different obstacles, 14 of which are run twice, and the remaining two of the most difficult ones are only run once!"
And the two difficult obstacles are: the 6th and 22nd obstacles Becher's Brook, also known as the "Bicher's Stream" - the drop is large, and the landing height is 2.07 meters, which is extremely dangerous!
"Let's see, the numbers have been discharged. Ya~ Everyone saw the big screen of the horse, the dog master's number is No. 6, a very auspicious number, did you see the five-star red flag behind his name?"
As the live broadcast deepened, more and more viewers came to visit.
Some are attracted by the name of the princess and sister, some are attracted by the high-reward horse racing of "inhumanity", and more want to see the performance of the "dog" on the field.
The number of viewers in the live broadcast room has already exceeded 10 million, and no one knows how many people will watch it in the end. If the live broadcast also calculates the ratings, I'm afraid some local TV stations will be out of reach.
This game will also be broadcast on Tulip National TV, if they know that the number of viewers in Chen Ergou's live broadcast room will exceed the ratings of their national TV, I don't know how they will feel.
In fact, since the 16th century, horse racing has undergone a sea change. Horse racing, which used to be a race between farmers or villagers in the neighborhood, has grown into an industry with billions of dollars in prize money and billions of dollars in prize money around the world.
Nowadays, many countries host top horse racing events, and fans from all over the world come to experience the thrill of the track.
Just the fact that equestrian has produced as many as 6 gold medals at the Olympics also proves its importance.
But in China, horse racing is not so popular among many sports. Or to put it simply, it is still because of poor grades, aristocratic movements, and the lives of ordinary people are too far away.
Central Channel 5 usually broadcasts some important horse races, but there are a few viewers who have the patience to watch and understand and like it. And what is the situation now, because of the participation of a Chinese, more and more viewers are curious about this horse race?!
“666”
"It's still a dog who can play. ”
"The principal usually broadcasts live occasionally, but look at what he is doing with the green onions, playing games live and scolding his teammates...... Lo!"
As the on-site commentary introduced, the national flags of many riders on the big screen kept being played, including the United States, tulips, Ireland, France, and the United Kingdom...... It's a big international competition!
The track has a semi-arc shape, with many different obstacle barriers arranged on the track.
Miss Lulu's eloquent commentary is the first time to show her personal charm. Because people are very friendly, sometimes they will be silly and funny, but it makes the audience feel cordial, and they praise the young lady "nice lulu!"
"It's no accident that this high school student can be the assistant of the dog master. ”
"Miss Lulu, my daughter-in-law, don't rob me of anyone!"
"Upstairs to eat lotus root, Lulu also dares to grab it. ”
"Miss Lulu knows a lot, do you want to be the second dog professor!"
Lulu was also very happy when he saw the barrage of compliments on himself, and said, "Thank you for liking me, but I don't really know much, and I can't compare with Professor Dog." This knowledge was given to me by the staff, and I just read it...... I'm just a high school graduate, but I'm still happy to be praised by everyone. Thank you, people would be happier if someone gave me a gift......"
"666, learned to ask for gifts so quickly. ”
"Yes, the assistant of the door-cutter is the same as the door-cutter. Ha ha. ”
"Alright, look, the players are in......"
A group of riders make final preparations at the starting point, among which Chen Ergou is wearing a black race uniform and white pants, which can be seen at a glance among a group of white riders. His upper body was straight, his body rose and fell regularly with the movement of the horse, and the untamable "Aesop" behaved like a cat under him.
In the live broadcast room, there was another "come on" barrage.
The perspective gradually shifted to the whole venue, and the scene was lively in the morning. The 7.141-kilometre trail with 30 obstacles is the ultimate test for horses and jockeys.
Because of the excitement of the race, not only the spectators who love horse racing, but even those who don't usually watch horse races and don't often bet on horses like to watch them.
