I love Horsing Around! Er, I mean, I love eventing, especially British eventing. The Brits could always master their horses with such panache! I found this funny little video of Eventing World Champion Zara Phillips. She is a royal (daughter of Princess Anne, Prince Charles’ sister) and twelfth in the British Order of Succession. She is wonderfully skilled horsewoman and it is always so thrilling to watch the eventing competition. She is also the first royal to star in an advertisement, for Land Rover. Hehe, who would win that jump, eh?
Here’s one of the ads currently running. What a beautiful horse! Smart, too! 
I also see from the video that the male British one-liners are not so terribly different than the American ones. :-p Good horse!
You can take a peek at the main UK Equestrian Overview by Land Rover here. There are some excellent video clips of the competition, and all sorts of information about it. The horses are gorgeous and the riders are marvelously skillful! It’s a real treat to see.
