Milo finished his second Badminton in 48th place I think. He had two down in the show jumping, the first fence which quite a few took down and the planks where he did his trademark jump off three legs leaving one behind over the fence. This time he didn't get away with it!!!
He was really great round the cross country, just 1 second over and looking like he could do it all again.
He is home now for a holiday and is in fantastic shape. Spike the vet says he has legs of steel!
He now has 3 burghley and 2 badmintons under his belt and no cross country jumping penalties at any of them!
Not bad for a horse that everyone had given up on.
As always our thanks go to Mark and his team for another amazing few days.
Off to bed now, will leave all the unpacking and washing til tomorrow.
Hi Di
ReplyDeleteI was at Bill Levett's yard at the time Milo was there and had a huge soft spot for him. I've followed his progress since and am chuffed to see how far he has come. I have shown your blog to a friend of mine who was also at Bills at the same time as she loved him too.
Please give him a pat and a polo from me, what a legend he is!
