    Heart is broken ?

    Dunne v Frost

    So the reason you come up with is that he fancied her & she didn't fancy him & was joking with other jocks hence he was jealous - misogynistic much?

    Dunne v Frost

    I don't know where to start with this tbh. Really? His "bruised ego" had to be because she rejected his advances and cracked a joke with "some other jock" (male obviously) not because she's a sucessful jockey with better results and rides. Jesus wept as we might say here in Clare ?

    Dunne v Frost

    Who remembers WHS win a pony competition!

    I was convinced I'd win every year but no ? Had to wait til I was 32 for my first horse - he was an angel of an ex racer and definitely with the wait ?

    Irish sports horse growth?

    I bought my ISH - Connie/ID/TB mare as a very scrawny 3 year old standing at 14.3. She's 11 now and a well built 15.3. Think she's finished growing ???

    What is the most comfortable riding hat?

    Harry Hall seemed to be the only hats around when I started as a young 'un in the late 60s. We solved the any fitting issues (and at the same time emulated our Showjumping heroes - David Broome & Eddie Macken in my case ??) by cutting off the under chin elastic ?
