About this deal

Lucinda’s 1977 victory nearly didn’t happen – she nearly turned down George, her mount, because of his topsy-turvy competition record. But her father, who was in the terminal stages of a cancer diagnosis, encouraged her to take the horse on and give herself a focal point. He would join them in person at that Badminton, where he took on the role of leading George around in the ten-minute box, and sadly passed away in the months after their win. The Australian rider David Green (later her husband) told Lucinda “that’s a really good little horse” and encouraged her to try him out. Great Badminton) Capt. James Templer (GBR) on M’Lord Connolly; (Little Badminton) Sheila Waddington (GBR) on Glenamoy Lucinda believes she has Village Gossip to thank for her ability to get the best out of Regal Realm. Both horses were brave and wanted to go flat out across country, but they were also sensitive and resented being told what to do.

Great Badminton) Anneli Drummond-Hay (GBR) on Merely-a-Monarch; (Little Badminton) Penny Crofts (GBR) on HGraham-Clark’s Priam He is a beautiful colt and has been shown more times than any other horse I have brought to sale," said Chris Richardson, Managing Director of Cheveley Park Stud which enjoyed a fabulous Sun Chariot Stakes victory at the weekend with INSPIRAL. Entries were taken June 14 for the Northern Stars Turf Festival, Canterbury Park’s most prominent night of racing, which will be conducted on Wednesday, June 21.They did very well to get her here this week, there’s a scar under her jaw but the vets have clearly done a very good job. She’s behaved incredibly well, especially considering she’s been through a lot." The Oldest (Equine) Winner: Until 2017, Mark Todd could also claim a snippet of glory in this category – it was his Horton Point, who won at the age of 16 in 1994, who topped the equine age stakes. But Andrew Nicholson’s Nereo changed all that, winning at the ripe old age of 17 and retiring the following year. It was certainly a vintage year for vintage horses – Michael Jung’s La Biosthetique Sam FBW, who finished second, was also 17. It was a new science and no one knew much about it,” explains Lucinda. “Paul himself hadn’t tried it but he recognised that it could cure this problem. It was his pièce de résistance.”

She has been the busiest horse we have ever brought to the sales in terms of showing, she has had so many vets, and everyone said she is beautiful," said Michelle Morgan. "We knew we had a lovely filly and she sold well. Hopefully she’ll go on and be a nice advert for the stud." As a larger set, it features 6 minifigures including 4 of the ninja and 2 villains. The ninja featured in the set includes Kai, Jay, Cole and Zane who are all wearing their updated but standard ninja robes. Although the standard outfits are a little less exciting than the Golden Dragon variants, the updated design and printed detail are nicely done. I particularly like Cole and Zane’s outfits due to the use of two contrasting colours. Unusually, they don’t have any other weapons beyond a sword. However, there are a number of golden weapons spread throughout the temple. But this uncontrolled foray into the forest sealed the deal. Regal Realm came home with Lucinda to Appleshaw, Hampshire. The Tallest Winner: Four horses hold the honour of being the tallest to win Badminton, but they aren’t, perhaps, as colossal as you may imagine. Major E. A. Boylan’s Durlas Eile, who won in 1965, Captain Mark Phillip’s Columbus, who won in 1974, David O’Connor’s Custom Made, who won in 1997 and Chris Bartle’s Word Perfect II, who won in 1998 were all 17hh.

Now, Lucinda can reliably be found at most events, either competing her own horse, helping her daughter, Lissa, who made her Badminton debut in 2017, or working as a busy member of the media army.

What I remember best about Regal Realm was his extraordinary athleticism,” says Ginny Elliot (pictured, with Lucinda), who was on the same Olympic team, riding Priceless, in LA 1984. “On the cross-country, he and Lucinda were like a pair of gymnasts. Reflecting on the Book 1 and Book 2 sale so far he said: "You prep these horses and you think they are going to make some money, and when they make such an amount of money then the hard work is rewarded. We have come to the sales before and horses have not sold to what we thought they should, and this year we managed to sell everything in Book 1 and everything so far in Book 2. Hopefully we keep this going!" All the British team had to jump clear to win gold, which they didn’t quite manage, but Regal Realm’s foot-perfect round clinched silver and individual sixth.TOO DARN HOT has enjoyed a stellar start to his stud career with four Group winners amongst his first crop including the Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes winner FALLEN ANGEL. When Regal Realm won the World Championships in Luhmühlen in 1982, Britain hadn’t won double gold for some time,” says Malcolm Wallace, chef d’equipe at the time. “We were watching the showjumping and, of course, Lucinda jumped clear and Lord Hugh Russell said, ‘Ah’ rather sternly. Book 2 of the Tattersalls October Yearling Sale got off to a strong start with a DUBAWI filly topping proceedings at 725,000 guineas and 19 lots selling for 200,000 guineas or more. It was shattering as all my money had gone on him and it was as good as down the drain,” says Lucinda.

The set includes a great version of the Crystal King. He appears in different forms across a few sets, in the version featured here he has four arms in a similar fashion to Garmadon. However, despite this, the character doesn’t appear to be a version of Garmadon, instead, he has a similar appearance to the Overlord. Lifting up the Oni-style mask reveals a face which is remarkably similar to the Overlord. I guess the TV series will fully reveal what exactly is going on with the Crystal King and all the returning villains. The Vengestone Army seems to be made up of very similar-looking minions. The Crystal King’s foot soldiers all use the same dragon-like head, this is a single piece and not a hood which slips over a standard minifigure head. The detailing on the torso and legs is impressive, I especially like the use of transparent pieces used for parts of the minifigure, including shoulder armour. If not, look for a "language" or "account_name" text file that you can edit. (If not in the game folder, try C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\ SteamEmu Saves\settings). Save and open the game again. The top price on the opening day of Book 2 of the October Yearling Sale came early in the day when Lodge Park Stud’s DUBAWI filly from the family of their great racemare and producer PARK EXPRESS sold for 725,000 guineas to Godolphin. The sale represented the second highest priced filly ever sold at Book 2. In 1976 she won her second Badminton, this time aboard Wideawake, but the victory was marred by tragedy – as she waited to begin her lap of honour, the ostensibly healthy horse reared up suddenly beneath her, staggered forward, and died. The cause was never discovered.LAST MONARCH” stands as a visual masterpiece, boasting majestic graphics that befit the regal setting.
