Thought we could have a trip down memory lane!
So, your best Olympia Champion?
For me, it was Castle Comet in 2004 - nothing to touch him and it was such a wonderful moment when his rider dismounted in the middle of the ring and led him out. What a tribute to a fantastic pony.

For me it was the year Dunedin Harris won - after Mosside Campsie Glen (both Highlands) was pulled in reserve.....Jo must have been sitting there thinking there was a mistake as she knew she had BoB but wasn't expecting to take champ.  Would add that I do love Castle Comet too, but unfortunately wasn't there the year he won. |

No competition - Castle Comet is the best Olympia winner seen in modern times. So true to type, stunning movement and the all important wow factor. Who wouldn't want to own such a pony?!!

Disagree about Comet, moved like a show pony not a native.

cloud, was beautiful. i love rannock of trailtrow. but castle comet won it in true style, best lap of honor. (with regards to the movement, read the breed descpition, and tell us again why he shouldnt move so beautifully with ease!!)  ;D |

(with regards to the movement, read the breed descpition, and tell us again why he shouldnt move so beautifully with ease!!) ;D Have to say I agree. I have a total bugbear about natives not moving the way nature intended (eg flicky-toed Highlands, tattie-mashing Fells), but the times I have seen Castle Comet, I have been more than impressed. |

Well done Katy you thoroughly deserve it....My favourite Lunesdale Lucky Lady ...That canter serpentine was faultless....Best oustanding win.... Verwood Roger with Nicky Stevens aboard an education in how to get maximum use out of a difficult arena which was nearly emulated yesterday by the 5th placed D Drumacre Lloer Solo .Which is a mare to all calling her he.

Castle Comet for me too! I was reduced to tears when Comet and Vanessa did their lap of honour! They were completely outstanding and it was an unforgettable moment for me.
