Was just reminiscing about horse and rider combinations past and present and wondering who would be in my dream team. I have the following for my main:

Mary King (ofcourse!) & King William
Pippa Funnel & Primmores Pride
WFP & Tamarillo
Lucinda Fredericks (if we could have her back) and Hedley Brittania or....
Zara Phillips and Toytown


Who would you have in your team?

If they won't give us back Lucinda Fredericks can I have Lucinda Green (on .. well .. pretty much anything) instead?

Edit: actually it would be pretty cool to have Mark Philips, Princess Anne and Zara on the same team.

Yes, I was very much toying with the idea of LG and Be Fair or George, but I had to put down LF as I just love that little tot Hedley Britannia.
 
Oh and for my show jumping team it would be

JW and Milton
Marion Coakes and Stroller
Nick Skelton and Apollo
William Funnell & Cortaflex Mondriaan
 
Lucinda green and a rocking horse :D she'd still get a tune out of it
Nicola Wilson and Opposition buzz
Mary King and king william
Lucinda fredericks and hedley Brittania
Daisy Dick and spring along
Zara phillips and toytown
WFP and tamarillo
My god but we have a lot of talent out there, its difficult to pick i could go on and on
 
WFP - Tamarillo
Lucinda Green - Be Fair
Mark Phillips Great Ovation
Ian Stark Murphy Himself

and could we persuade Mark Todd to change is passport and we could have Charisma as well.

But who would be the reserve/individual out of those?
 
ballincoola for william for me
nicola and buzz lucinda green on anything ian and murphy daisy and spring and then probably sarah cutteridge with lettie as she popped burghley like a pony club track or as someone said priceless
