My dads old mare is the main photo, we have studied all the photographs of my dad hunting her, it IS her. Her name was 'A round with Alice', she had stringholt. But would jump anything, it was her life, my dad loved her with all his heart.

The rider is Joss Hanbury.

Does anybody know any information about her? My dad would love to know.

After a bit more digging we have found out the photo was taken last year so cant be her, she'd be too old. Wishful thinking on my parents part, I feel like a bit of an idiot now though! haha, they where the ones who made me post, feel like a right doughnut now!

very embarrassed, stupid parents!!
