Well with blokes allowed to compete against the ladies - this whole event is becoming a joke.
Hope they cancel it.

Didn't Princess Anne compete in the 1976 Olympics in the equestrian events?

So where are the Aussie Gold's coming from in Tokyo 2021.
Like Rio expectations are high for our female swimmers.In both individual and relay events.Anything under 4 golds will be a disappointing result,like Rio.Wont be the same without the fans screaming the roof off.
Valadrome, Canoeing,Archery,Men's+woman's hockey.Sailing ,M+W Basketball and always some surprise medals.
If Australia wants to finish top 10 in the medal count.
Gold 10.….Silver 15..….Bronze 20
At least 45 medals.
 

Oh c'mon GTR, these days it's not allowed to be about how many medals are won it's about who has the most fun !!

If the women's hockey win a medal they will have done well.  With the men it will come down to a little bit of luck.  I would hope that they qualify for the gold medal game.  Their ability to convert penalty corners will be imperative.
