Children of a Lesser God: Swedish pair Annette Christensen and Normandie are not a well known star pair, but their piaffe absolutely deserves a 10. However "no name no game" and the judges with their blurred vision only scored it 7.

Victoria Max-Theurer on Augustin. The massive bay is such a high-quality sleep but he was lulled to sleep during this ride. The trot extensions were powerless despite their buoyancy. He also stalled in passage. In piaffe he has amazing sit.
