Aye, congrats to Mary King x2! Congrats to Sinead Halpin as well on her 3rd place finish! Both women are incredible riders and horse(wo)men. I'm excited to see Mary become the first Brit to compete in 6 (I believe) Olympics! This coming 2012 Olympics will be perfect for her to make the record as it's in London!
I watched the stadium jumping yesterday and I must say her horses are fantastic. I was a bigger fan of Fernhill Urco who actually ended up finishing second. He seemed to be a much more careful jumper than her mare King's Temptress. Though they could both have just been tired.
Thoughts? :)
