I was sorry not to see Jon or Sinead ride Friday morning but I did manage to catch up with them both briefly during the day. Sinead was recently in London to raise awareness about the Brooke Charity and is now best friends with the Queen! I’m looking forward to seeing Manoir de Carneville aka Tate in action soon, and also Downtown Harrison, as well as the horse Jon rode in the prelim division, Quigase du Lac. You can catch all the scores from Rocking Horse II as they happen live here.
Incidentally, Sinead told me she travelled north to teach a clinic over Valentine’s Day and consequently got to spend some time with her mutli-talented sweetheart who she gushed about a bit, it was adorable especially as most of the other eventing couples I quizzed today told me they had precious little time for romance in their lives – say it ain’t so, Eventing Nation! If you are one half of an eventing couple how did you celebrate the day of lurve?
Many thanks to Jon and Sinead for their time, and thank you as always for reading. Long live romance and Go Eventing!
