Oliver/King Joules

[SusieT]

Just browsing the Badminton list and see Oli on King Joules -hadn't realised he was riding him, anyone know what the story was to how that came about?

Didn't he go to Oli last season? I have a feeling (and I don't recall exactly) that he was a bit tricky and I think it was a case of trying him with a stronger man on top

Wasn't King Joules the one Mary King got her second ban on?

Seem to remember he was described as a fairly difficult ride. Been with Oli T at least since last year I think.

He was sent to Oli after Andrew Nicholson had his accident. He was going well for Andrew but needed to keep competing.
