I had a lot of fun on the weekend chatting with riders about their horses and what they do together. One great story was about 12 year old mare VP Celebrity Girl (pictured above with owner Cherie Mills) who had happily cantered around her first cross country course, having only been under saddle for six months. She has however been busy in that six months, as Cherie explains in the interview below.

Kylie Stocco, also of the Indigo Idiots had a nerve wracking moment at the water but all went with Thorwood Lemondrop once Kylie had exhorted her to " Get up you pouffy show pony!!"
