If only Edgar could have been there – his first comment about you, when we met, all these years ago, was: this guy is nearly too good to be true… CONGRATULATIONS for being such an outstanding, first-class rider and horse-person, who is not only so good with his horses but as well with a mixed bunch of owners, who you make and keep happy one after the other! You are THE BEST – in happy and difficult times!!!!!!

I have been watching the eventing dressage and thought the judges could have given you more marks. Best of luck to you and Sam and the rest of the team for the rest of the event. Cheers, Carol Simpson (Marianne’s friend).

What an amazing achievement. Who would have thought all those years ago cheering you on riding Josh & Dio at the interschool comps, I’ll now be sitting up in the middle of the night cheering you on at the Olympics. Your parents must be so proud of you. Best wishes Deann (your old Downlands equestrian team manager)
