    Name , please ?

    I was looking at some photos I took at Burnham Market in 2002 . One is of Bettina Hoy riding a dark bay/brown horse , but I arrived late & the programmes had sold out . I can't show the pic as I haven't got around to converting it into a jpeg ! I think the name of the horse could be '...

    Showjumper accused of beating horse

    Absolutely disgusting behaviour . The rider needs to get another career , that doesn't involve animals . I used to enjoy watching showjumping , but have seen some idiotic riding that saddens me ( though thankfully it is still quite rare .) There is no excuse for excessive use of the whip ...

    Great Witchingham

    Agree with you there . I can't fence judge anymore, for the the foreseeable future , as my Husband has changed his job & the hours don't suit ( I don't drive . ) You will be well looked after & it's a very friendly event

    Oliver Townend on ready steady cook!

    Thanks for that - it was mentioned in Eventing a while back , but no date given , so assumed I'd missed it . Anyone remember William F-P & Jeanette Brakewell on the show ? ( Around the time of the foot & mouth outbreak ) Jeanette won , but she was so nervous , poor thing !

    Louise Skelton

    Great stuff - I remember reading about Louise's accident some years ago in Eventing magazine . I get a bit cross when I read about people being critical of her riding style , but I suppose they don't realise how bad her accident was . A few years ago , she had a lovely coloured horse called...
