Shame that she had to pull out of the Olympics because her horse is injured. Just wondering why hasn't she got a replacement horse which she could train alongside her horse Toytown? |

I'm not altogether sure how it works but I gather like an athlete has to qualify for a place on the team. The same applies here and Toytown was the only horse she had qualified with. _________________ Put some records on while I pour |

Horses capable of performing at Olympic level don't just grow on trees! It costs a lot of money to train an eventer, and years of hard work. Zara must be so disappointed, I just hope she has the determination and good fortune to stay around for 2012. _________________ MiS |
