I reckon Fred would have been proud to have 2 of his former riders play such a huge part in this afternoon's Nations Cup victory.

Not being willing to subscribe to Sky and with FEITV not being allowed to show it live in GB and Ireland, I could only check the scores from time to time. Certainly a convincing victory (though of course it wasn't the top German team) and I'm delighted. I first saw Billy Congo 3 years ago and...

Just found live video coverage from the Pony Europeans at Bishop Burton. It's in the results section of http://www.ponyeuropeans2010.com/ They've restored the Irish riders to their right nationality on the results list, but the live scoring system has scores in the wrong columns. Not a good...

Very sadly, FEITV has now updated their info to say no live stream in UK and Ireland. Oh well, at least I'll get some work done, and see the highlights in due course.

Annoyed to see that the starting list for the Old Lodge Young Breeding Horse Championship at Hickstead this morning provides NO breeding information for the horses. This must be so disheartening for breeders.

Well Edouard is supposed to have had some training from Ludger, though he does not look to have benefited much from it judging by his rounds at the Global Champions Tour shows.

The mention of Beech House is because it is Derek is the Secretary of the Area show (he is also Area 22 Rep) and it is his home address. It does clearly say Field House is the venue. Guess Field House don't have the schedule on their website because they are not running the show, thought it...

Hickstead website said iNations Cup will only be available to subscribers outside Britain, but FEITV itself now says it will be available worldwide. As someone who won't subscribe to Sky, I'm hoping that FEITV is correct, but won't believe it till I see it happen!

Glad you and "the boys" are going ok again.

Unfortunately in the UK we can't watch our home Nations Cup on FEITV, because Sky is screening it. Barring accidents team is: Michael Whitaker, Tina Fletcher, William Funnell, Peter Charles and Robert Smith.

Point of information: Having met Franke I can safely say he is not almost 6 ft 6" - definitely no more than 6ft 2". Eventers may be less inclined to swing legs back as they are more likely to adopt the "defensive" leaning back seat when going cross-country. The important thing in whichever...
