Congratulations are in order for Geoff well done!

What a dirty stop Remus put in for John

Brilliant to see it is technically a clear round win at the Derby and not a 4 faulter. Brilliant Derby though.
 
hickstead was great, but wet, spent loads but good fun. enjoying watching it now.......just getting the inlaws into horses, dad inlaw rode mine again today, 3rd time, its great,bless...enjoying the hickstead whilst gobbling choc cake!
 
Just watching the highlights from last week, is it just me or does Ellen just seem to disappear off the circuit a fair bit when Locarno is not fit to compete?
 
I must admit to having been a little disappointed at the commentators saying 'well ridden' all the time. Yes, of course they were well ridden, but some of those horses really pulled out all the stops to get out of trouble

Well jumped, horses!

Sorry this is a bit late, only watched a bit of Hickstead so far. Can any one tell me what the bit was on Ben Mahers horse, it looked very compicated.

In fairness to the horse John did miss him a little at that fence

I've seen the horse eliminated in that ring with Ben Maher before though...didn't want to know last year at a brush filled oxer going into a double!
