Has anyone else been watching the Paralympic dressage? Much as I was supporting Lee, as soon as Pepo started I found myself rooting for him! That was incredible, just beautiful to watch and so inspirational. He really deserves that gold :)
 
I saw his test and it was really fantastic - he deserves the gold. I heard someone on TV say that he has been an event rider in the past.
 
Pepo Puch is a real inspiration. He rode at several European Championships in eventing until he suffered a terrible fall, and sadly broke his neck. To come back from that and win Paralympic gold is really remarkable and fully deserved, though I am also gutted for Lee Pearson who is a legend.
