Did anyone else see him give his horse a treat when leaving the ring at Olympia.I thought that was lovely.Nice test too.

Yes, I am pretty sure he did and agree nice test (also had soft spot for the friesian!)

I thought he rode so quiet, calm and controlled... FANTASTIC!

I saw him at the Horse of the Year show, he did the same test there. At the time he said that he was taking this horse to these shows for experience, his goal is the 2012 Olympics. Also Elton John has put the music together especially for him.

i have been lucky enough to have a few lessons with him at his place - he keeps a box of treats on the side and when they are good schooling he always rewards them. When I got home i decided to do the same with mine but she has never been good enough to warrant one

He is the nicest most humble man you could meet in person and very kind. And a great teacher! Was at Olympia last night and thought his horse looked the happiest and most settled out of all of those competing!

Ive not seen that horse before but straight away thought 2012, It was nice to see such kind riding and also some stunning horses for other Brits, shame most of the foreign riders don't know how to halt at the end of a test tho.

From what I watched of the dressage last night it was Richard and his horse that I enjoyed most, think that horse was lovely, young but seemed chilled and obviously in good hands. And thought it was touching too when he fished out the treat. Hope they make it for 2012.

I remember when that horse first arrived at his yard - he really has matured fabulously.
