did you guys see this? Neat story!
That is so neat, good for him.
Love his attitude and love what he said at the end about only his mare knowing how he is, physically, at 72, and helping him…
Thanks for sharing this story. What a cool guy. I love that he has such a strong connection with his mare and I can’t wait to watch their test.
Best of luck to him! I hope he does really well. That’s one thing I love about that particular sport, you can keep doing it for a really long time - not like some sports where by mid-20’s you’re considered geriatric.
He did a good job in Beijing. He is not just a rider who is in the Olympics because he is the only one for his country. He’s a good rider, and Whisper is a nice horse.
“He’s a good rider”
Yes, for sure:
“I am a better rider at 70 than I was at 40.” If we all could be so fortunate.
