It’s there, I thought it was great. Poor Sean, but glad he can laugh. Well done Harry. They both seem such nice young men.

I’m going to use the cold weather as an excuse to light the fire and watch it.That was actually excellent.
Big day at Sandown today...

I am hiding in a warm stable trying to get better at tails. Still not happy, but lacking enough motivation to pull it out and start again.

Idk, that’s none too shabby!
As someone who plaited tails up for hunting for years you are absolutely brilliant. Mine were rubbish.

Very smart. Always makes me cross on the groom’s behalf when a non plaited horse wins the best turned out over an unplaited one. Did think about going to Sandown as would like to see El Fabiolo and that race in particular but just thought it will be rammed there.

I like Harry Skelton and the Cheltenham theme. All brilliant though.

Jonbon is the most gorgeous stamp of a horse, wouldn't look out of place in the show ring

I don't think I'm going to watch the next.
Hope horse and jock get up and are OK

I always think Nicky’s horses could all trot directly from racing to the show ring. He does like a beautiful stamp.

Usually all in very simple tack too, would be interesting to see how many of his go showing as he definitely has a certain type
