Well Jordan (Katie Price) competed in a preliminary unaffiliated dressage competition at Hickstead last week - and because I am a nosy git I looked up her score - and she got 153 which to be fair to her is pretty good for a first time out. The same score in fact which I got for the same test in an unaffliated dressage back in October.
So, apart from being 15 years older than her and not having £60,000 kicking around to spend on a couple of top flight horses and the kit...I'm have the same chance of competing in the 2012 Olympic dressage as Jordan......................i.e. none!!!

I bought my niece Jordan pony-care book a few months ago, I had no idea she was so horse-mad, she's kinda gone up in my estimation!
She's a very good rider to be fair to her. I'm just insanely jealous of her "horse budget".
My poor friend had paid £400 entrance fee to showjump at Hickstead - then broke her hand 4 days before.
Nothing like horses to bring you down to earth.
So true! I think horses are a great leveller too. No matter how rich you are, or how expensive your horses, there's still stables to be mucked out, buckets to be filled and all that malarky..!
