    Is Alexandra Tolstoy the most annoying person in the horse world?

    I have nearly finished watching episode 3. I have to say I found her a joy to watch in this one. I guess she watched the previous two episodes, or the producer had words.

    Is Alexandra Tolstoy the most annoying person in the horse world?

    I'm just about to watch the rodeo program. The one I was referring to was the Spanish program (episode 2). All the way through she would scream and yelp and moan like a kid. Maybe she's 'bucked' up her act in the third one, which is why some of you thought otherwise. I have not been into...

    Is Alexandra Tolstoy the most annoying person in the horse world?

    Program on BBC iPlayer about Siberian horses.

    I did have a look through the forums but didn't see anything. I'm new here. I have to say I got excited for the horse when it tried to escape. It new exactly what was going to happen to it.

    Smelling like horse at work?

    I always have a good scrub after being with Maverick and Funkymunky. Find it quite refreshing. It's almost like a ritual.
