[Festive_Felicitations]

Does that mean WFP has won the big prize again? Or is it still mary's as she finished above 8th?

ETS what a shame for Chris! He hasn't had the best season over there this year. Maybe his horses just want to come back to his stunning yard here...

Post ETS - its 1:30am on a Monday so i'd better go to bed! Thanks for the coverage!! NIght.

Mary has the big prize, understandably she is looking thrilled!

Theres lots more prizes being awarded by HSBC apparently

 

[lannerch]

Thanks jcwhite
Mary only just won wfp is a legend!

 

[amyneave]

Well Done William and Well done Mary.

Mary finished series on 46 points, William on 40 points. Mary finished with some room to spare in the end.

I believe by my calculations that Andrew Nicholson will have finished 3rd in Fei series on 26 points. Piggy French 4th on 20 points, and Clayton Freddericks 5th on 17 points.

Mary and William well clear of the rest.

Good start for them two for next season as well because these points are the first of the 2012 series now that burghley will be the final next year.

 

[only_me]

*cough* Irish/Brit...

[Maisie2]
