OMG he's beautiful - I bet he's not for sale after the event. :D

You couldn't put a price on any of the horse's. From Super cob to Sophie's 7 yr old warmblood they were all outstanding. Even when the crowds were asked to clap by the riders I can only think of one that got upset but then settled with a pat from the groom.

This are the British team horses coming in for the medal ceremony and they are bloody big fit horses, as an able bodied rider I'd struggle to ride them.

It does seem to pause a few times whilst playing but my camera is a camera and video camera in one so probably why not the best quality. I did pan onto the crowd waving at the end but again isn't very clear :)

Never thought Id see a freestyle to "Steptoe & Son", absolutely inspired! What a beautiful horse too, really lovely expression on his little face. A huge well done to all our para riders, fantastic results all round x

Just had a quick google (as working) and she's a Belgian rider called Barbra Minneci and the horse is an Irish cob called Barilla :£

This Cob and the Belgium Trad cob Barilla (?) were my favorite horses there. I have the whole of the trad cobs freestyle test on video. I'll try and upload it.
