Well done Laura....

and the British dressage team, who won a team silver last night at the World Equestrian Games in Kentucky. I was working late last night, but finished just in time to see Laura Bechtolsheimer's ride on Mistral Hojris, scoring 82.51%. Not a tail swish in sight - it was quite, quite beautiful. Thank you BBC for showing it. I'll post a video as soon as one pops up on the net.

I just watched Laura B's test on the BBC Sport page. It brought a tear to my eye, I so wish I could ride like that!
And what a super horse she has, I remember a few years back she was having terrible trouble with him hotting up during tests, how lovely to see the partnership they now have.

Wasn't it lovely? I was on tenterhooks hoping she didn't have another Beijing!
