More Rolex and Eventing News!


Here's a photo taken by Cindy Fisher of the fabulous Teddy and Karen O'Connor team at Rolex 2007 this year. Remember that Teddy is a *pony* who earned third at Rolex and jumped clear and under time on the last day!!! This year, Rolex's cloud was the fact that Ralph Hill had been injured in a riding accident earlier in March, so he was not at Rolex for the first time in 3 decades. He is considered the "Mick Jagger of Eventing," and so his serious injury just underscores the demands placed on these true athletes. You can read more about Eventing at their official organization webpage, as well as some news about Ralph Hill at the following links:
