[skye123]

apparently the owners of Over To You have given him to Jeanette Brakewell

lovely story and he definitly didnt look his age round the xc course yesterday

 

[spaniel]

Isnt it fabulous, she is so choked up about it and who can blame her.

 

[haybales]

just fabulous

 

[CastleMouse]

I'm so pleased that she ended on a good note, as Lucinda said though he won't like a retirement as a hacker!

 

[k1963]

So pleased for her

Jeanette said yesterday though that he would be retired from 3DE but would do some ODE

 

[StrawberryFish]

I was OK until she told Clare Balding that she had been given him - then I started sobbing

 

[sunflower]

I had a tear in my eye too!

 

[482739]

I think its so goood, and he is going to do ode he is sure to win a few

 

[The Virgin Dubble]

Awww, it really choked me up when she told Clare that he had been given to her.

He looks fantastic and is a credit to Janettes team.

I wish her many more happy years with him.

flipping Beeb cutting everything short for the sodding snooker-wish i'd seen it! He looked stunning today bless him

 

[eventrider23]

Soo soo happy for her....she's had him now since he was a 4 year old and evented him since he was 5!! That's 14/15 years she's had him....would be terrible to have him taken away now!

I was under the impression that this had happened a while back, am sure I read about it in an interview in H&H or similar last year?

 

[StrawberryFish]

I didn't know that Weezy
still, whenever it happened, it's a lovely gesture

 

[lizzie_liz]

What a lovely gesture, just reading this is bringing tears to my eyes. He is looking fab, all credit to everyone who works with him and to jeanette.
Am sure he will be having fun round the one days.

 

[Coffee_Bean]

I love that horse

 

[Moggy in Manolos]

That is a lovely story, those two make a fab team

 

[Puppy]

Naaaw, I love a happy ending!

 

[welshchick]

Wonderful news! Harry's just fab.

 

[Dutch]

yes, the horse looked amazing and it is lovely for Jeanette to now own the horse, and saves the owners from livery fees too! Result

Seriously though how lovely for Jeanette to have a good Badminton with him on his last run at it.

fantastic

pippa f. said in interview on sat. that if he was to be retired on sunday even she'd have a tear in her eye

however I don't exactly think he's going to be 'retired' to a field as a paddock ornament - somehow he's the sort that just going to keep on having fun

That's why Jeanette will continue taking him to one day events.

 

[Tempi]

i think thats lovely - he looked fantastic going x country and didnt show his age at all.

 

[dingle12]

Jack is going to carry on eventing at one days, he has so much character.

 

[morgan4eva]

that horse is soooo gourg!! i really felt for JB but she always gave over to you brill rides round every course she did!!!! he gives her fabby rides! he should still keep eventing because it would brake his heart if he didnt stop he would still feel important!!! bless him and he has had a smashing life!!!! at Badminton he looked like 8!!! he was amazing! he was by far as good as anyother horse that went round!
oh i am really upset but he is old! but it isnt about how old you are its about how you feel and JB says he feels young!!!! bless him!! xxxxx
