Would know who Zara Philips is?

I know you all probably do. But I asked a girl at the yard today, during normal conversation and she didnt have a clue, who she was, her mum was, or her dad!

And this is a girl that wants to do eventing and claims to be into it?? I am scared of speed and anythin gover 3ft and I know who she was. I said the name Toytown and got this vacant look back.

doh................some people. lol.

It is one of those things though - I would say I was into racing, know a fair amount, but when I was around people who had worked in it for 20 years I knew nothing. I even walked passed Edgar Prado, without recognizing him.

I know the name but thats it .

I have a feeling she is something to do with the royal family.

Must admit its not that high on my list of priorities and I dont keep up with famous people either

PMSL!! Easily done - the only US jockeys I ever recognized without their hats on when over there were Gary Stevens and Jerry Bailey.

I think most non horsey people would know Zara Philips. She's been in the papers and news enough recently.

In my defence it was about 8:00 in the morning and everything was in full swing. He just came by to say hi to Michael.
