The American horses passed the inspection!In case Boyd was deemed "unsound", Phillip Dutton presented Otis and Shamwari. All 36 horses were passed and will move on to dressage tomorrow. I noticed a few fashion 'misses', mostly by the lady riders who didn't make an effort. My fashion vote went to Mark Todd, who was properly presented in a blazer and tan slacks, complete with a tie and his big smile. I also loved the four men in military uniform who were each very dashing and representing the origins of the sport.American supporters will have a free morning tomorrow and there is much pent-up demand to shop-shop-shop! We are fortunate to have Silva here to act as our fashion consultant.The informal reception tonight is in the stables and we are off to find a beer and some bratwurst.
