The second day of the race was probably outdoors, and the crowd was free to move around, which was more lively than the first day. There were spectators early in the morning, and before the competition began, the contestants were using the venue to train. However, the competition rules that only the rider can experience the race, and the horse cannot be tested.

You can't ride a horse into the race, but you can go inside, take note of the route, the distance between the obstacles, and decide how many steps you want the horse to take during the race. It doesn't do enough to walk too much, it has to be just right, and the route has to be correct.

The obstacle course is not very large, it tests the reflexes of the horses and the riders, so the rider is required to run the course on the course, and if you can't remember the order of the course, you will be disqualified. It is not difficult to memorize the route, and there are number marks next to the obstacles, so be careful not to run wrong.

An Feng also accompanied Joanna to look at the field, the specifications are very standard, 1.3 meters hurdles, a total length of about 650 meters, a total of 12 obstacle hurdles, one of which is a two-jump obstacle hurdle, a three-jump obstacle hurdle, that is, the standard 12 hurdles 15 jumps. The whole journey cannot exceed 70 seconds, and one point will be penalized for exceeding 4 seconds.

In addition, four points are penalized for encountering obstacles, four points are penalized for the first time the horse is afraid of jumping, the second time is eliminated for fear of jumping, the horse is eliminated, and the route is changed...... The difficulty of the competition is set according to the international one-star level. Joanna has memorized the rules and is now memorizing the route and planning the strategy for the journey.

After observation, they returned to the race preparation area.

Joanna and Bazel's fan base gathered here, Bazel was the first to return, he left confidently after watching it a few times, and now he is talking and laughing with his friends, and he looks confident. When Joanna returned, the others cheered and encouraged her.

When the staff came over and prepared to clear the venue, the fan group left. An Feng took Joanna's hand and said, "Looking forward to your wonderful performance!" ”

"I will!" Joanna nodded.

An Feng bowed his head and kissed her on the cheek, and encouraged: "Come on!" ”

Leaving Joanna for now, they returned to the audience area and sat down. The show jumping course is held in the middle of the racecourse, which was originally a polo field, but was temporarily added as an obstacle course. In the spectator area around the game. There are chairs and some small tables, all for VIP audiences.

The rest of the spectators found their own places to watch the game from the vantage point.

The film crew and TV station also arrived on time, ready to record the wonderful game, and yesterday's dressage competition was already in the local news, and it was also reported on the Internet, and received a lot of praise. Today is Sunday, and more spectators will come, and the people who sell drinks and snacks on the spot will make a lot of money.

After An Feng sat down. The game is ready to start.

Each player has only one chance to play, and the winner is determined by the lowest penalty score, with the best score being zero.

The first competitor comes out and after the referee rings the bell, he has forty seconds to start the race, starting with the horse passing the marker and ending at the finish line. The horses under the first runner were active and the race was soon started by the timing point.

Face twelve obstacles and a tortuous route. Footwork and speed calculations are particularly important, and the first runner has a good start to the game. The 1.3-meter hurdle is not too difficult, and the Olympic Games have a 1.6-meter hurdle, but the route is critical, and if you don't go well, you will lose the best starting time.

The first runner had such a problem, the horse walked too fast and made a sharp turn on the field. Coming to the 6th hurdle too early, causing the horse to jump too late and the hind legs of the horse hit the hurdle! But the rider finished the race calmly, and the total penalty point was four points, which was a good result.

The obstacle course also tests the tacit understanding between man and horse. All need to be clear-headed.

The second player came on the field and jumped well, but made the mistake of jumping too early: when passing through a water barrier, the early jump caused the horse's hooves to step into the water, and a penalty of four points. Later, he hit the last hurdle in the triple jump and was penalized for four more points. The distance is not good enough.

It is not appropriate to take off either too late or too early. In the top races, there are also those who have horses that are accurate to single digits throughout the race.

The third contestant continued to perform.

The show jumping is visually more intense than gentle dressage, with a fast pace that allows spectators to feel the horses galloping past them, dusty and horses leaping high and hitting the ground. Every game has the ability to keep the audience glued and stop talking.

Equestrian is one of the few sports that allows men and women to compete on the same stage, and in addition to Joanna, who is very popular, there are five women participating in this competition, all of whom use their own horses, and the dressage performance is highly talented for women, and the obstacle course is also good enough.

The field was full of women who did not give up their eyebrows, several ladies completed the match gracefully, and before Joanna came out, one professional player won the first zero penalty points of the tournament with a brilliant performance, claiming the best result so far. While it brings excitement, it also brings pressure.

After Joanna appeared, the fan group became active, and An Feng also cheered for her in her heart, she did not admit defeat, and naturally hoped that her performance could get attention...... Angelina did really well in the obstacle course, and this is an opportunity!

Joanna was as calm as ever, after the referee rang the bell, she did not rush Angelina to start, but walked a small distance, her eyes swept across the obstacle course, a little leisurely strolling, of course, yes, here she is a home game, full of advantages.

After she crossed the timing point, Angelina walked faster, and when the first hurdle appeared, she jumped ahead of the other horses, but because she was fast enough, this jump covered a long distance, and after landing easily, the dust took a sharp turn and changed before the second hurdle.

Joanna walks at a very fast pace.

Many viewers felt that she was taking a risk, referring to the previous competition, when crossing this obstacle, she needed to pull the reins to slow down a little and jump again, Joanna was speeding up and hurrying, but it was easy to make mistakes - the second obstacle was still a quick jump through.

The speed was fast, Angelina jumped high, so she didn't hit the obstacles.

"God forbid!" An Feng thought silently.

The fan group also breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Joanna has her own confidence, she turned other people's five steps into her own four steps, and passed in a more time-saving way, and the next few double horizontal obstacles were also passed relatively smoothly. The horse goes round and forth on the field once, and jumps twice through a double obstacle.

Then turn around and come back over the water barrier. The direction in which the horse's front hooves land determines the horse's turn, and Joanna's instructions to the horse in this regard are very accurate, and after turning and jumping over a single bar obstacle, there is a triple jump. This is a penalty zone, and you can make mistakes too early or too late, or if you misestimate the pace.

Joanna uncharacteristically pulled the reins this time. Angelina's head was lifted up, slower, skipping the first hurdle, three steps to the second, and three steps to the third...... Safe and sound! Then make a U-turn and rush towards the 10th double log hurdle, where penalties are also frequent, and the horse slows down after passing the triple jump hurdle. And the cunning designers of the track deliberately made it a high-speed obstacle course.

Slow over high speed hurdles is a test of technique.

This time, Joanna's pace was precise, and Angelina leaped from the designated starting point, passing with her back leg slightly off the second bar. It would be good for a short horse to get through this obstacle, and if it was a long-legged Oba, it would be a little bit of a problem.

After she passed the barrier, everyone stood up, and cheers came to their throats.

The eleventh and twelfth are all about soy sauce, and the designers give the riders a breather. It was greeted by a very ordinary single-horizontal wooden obstacle, but it was also encountered by Madahar. An Feng stared at the last moment without blinking. Angelina jumped over the twelfth hurdle and crossed the finish line in a total of 58 seconds.

At the moment she is number one, with zero penalty points and the shortest time.

"Well done!" An Feng applauded, and the audience also burst into cheers. Joanna used a risky strategy to win zero penalty points and the shortest amount of time.

She grabbed the reins and waved one hand at them, a smile on her face.

The exciting races that followed, despite the fact that the riders were all at a professional level, the obstacle course was also designed according to the level. The difficulty is slightly higher, there are all kinds of mistakes, it is most common to jump too early and too late, and there are even cases where the horse is afraid to jump when there are three consecutive jumps.

The horse is more real than a man, it thinks that if it can't do it, it can't do it, and it won't force itself to pass.

The scared rider shook his head and rearranged the order, he had one more chance. Next up is Bazel and his black steed. This tall horse is very handsome, worth millions, according to his son Charlie, he usually takes care of it himself as long as he has time.

Bazel brought his horse to the ring, presumably to regain his strength, and he adopted the same strategy as Joanna and passed quickly! The four hooves are flying, the turf is splashing, the overall rhythm is fast, and the mastery of the pace is at a superb level, just the first few jumps are very standard.

The obstacle behind was also passed in rhythm, and in the end there were zero penalty points, three seconds faster than Joanna, and the best result of the whole game, everyone applauded, horse racing is a one-star standard, but Bazel's technique is more than one star, just from his judgment and technique.

Until the end of the competition, it was close to noon, and the obstacle course was not time-consuming, so the organizers changed the medal ceremony scheduled for the afternoon to now, and in the show jumping, Joanna was third, followed by a young rider, and Bazel was the first.

In the end, since there was no cross-country score reference, the referees switched to the form of the same score in the obstacle course and dressage, and competed for the overall score with a more scientific algorithm, and finally Joanna took the fifth place with the total score, and Bazel became the second.

The winners were very happy, but the most exciting thing was the fan group of the two racers, who cheered, kept bringing champagne, shaking bottles and spraying each other to celebrate, and the camera recorded the scene of the carnival of men and women, and the cheers of the gentlemen and ladies were indeed very joyful.

Then Bazel came to the stage to accept the award, and the aura of the runner-up was still very strong, and many photos were taken. Of course, Joanna is indispensable, the organizers are very interesting, there are bonuses to the seventh place, and they can all come forward to accept the award and show their faces, and the prize money is quite a lot, a full 100,000 US dollars.

Joanna appeared on stage, and An Feng and her family and friends in the audience had already made a fuss, all kinds of cheers, ten times happier than the team that won the championship, and those who didn't know the situation really thought that they won the championship. Along with the fanciers who didn't finish well, they were also infected. (To be continued......)
