You’ve just finished your stadium jumping course at the 5* Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event. It’s a dream to finish. Whether you’ve got a clear round or more faults than you hope, what’s the first thing you do?

Smile. Pet your horse. Celebrate the ride.

There’s something about these photos that remind us of that little kid who loved horses, and dreamed to ride. The kid that still exists in all of us.
