Special Agent Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Pardon my ignorance. I thought Stuart rode over fences. Did Amanda race ride too? I hope she gets to spend some quality time with her family. We bitch and moan about the racing fraternity but, you'd have to be proud of how everyone has rallied around to raise some much needed funds. Well done. Thoughts with Amanda and her young family. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
