Olympic Horses and Riders

Juan Manuel Munoz Diaz and Fuego truly impressed me this year

In 2008, I cringed when Czech Republic rider David Svoboda and his horse HunHun, from the Czech National Stud, crashed through a fence during the modern pentathlon.

This year, the Cross Country course at Greenwich Park became slippery as more horses competed

I will always hold dear in my memories that I was privileged to see Joe Fargis on Touch of Class (above), Conrad Homfeld on Abdullah, and Greg Best on Gem Twist.  Those were fantastic years.
