A special bond
20th July 2015
This is without doubt my favourite memory of Hickstead. It may not be the most technically correct image, but it captures an incredibly special moment in time of David Pincus, the owner and breeder of this horse which his daughter Lucy competes.
At the end of the test, when David went to remove the earpiece for the steward, the whole bridle came off. Not only did the horse not panic, he waited patiently in the middle of the busy show ground for David to sort out the bridle while other competitors passed by.
These wonderful animals never cease to amaze me.
