 smoothly switching the whip at every stride.  Pure class.

The first time I ever saw that was a rider that I think came from down south and was riding for a short time in the CD - Paul Silver was his name.

Talking about Trentham Maria.

What about those Peter Louie horses, I think that is how you spelt his surname, they would have awful form, and then bang, they would perform out of their skin. He was obviously a very skilled, and cunning trainer.

Peter Louis was the spelling I think - I would love to hear A Rod interview him 😉 He could swear like no one else 🙂

I failed my first one too, it was putting a dot at the end of the car's journey.    I found the number of photos with caps in it much easier 🙂 

 

Did you go out to the garage and place a dot in front of your car?  😉 

Or Pakistan 11 ?
