I'll bet you it was a better option than the 500 on tv, being a spectator at a long standing annual event like Devon, given the events, it had to be an enjoyable day.
Looks like rider 467's horse quit at a fence, didn't get thrown, and thats a good thing.
I used to hear the name "Devon" quite a bit growing up, and though I've been there, it was so long ago, young kid etc. The elders in my family are still involved with show riding, 2 are qualified judges and stewards, we've also conducted shows with 600+ exhibitors, lot of heritage and history with hunters and jumpers. Lot of preparation to put on a show like that.
The one person grooming, with bystanders looking on, sets a poor example in my opinion, being at an event, the likely breed of a TB, I always stand to one side of the path of those rear legs, he's in a position to get launched to the moon, just takes one fly or some other darned thing. I suppose there's a reason I've never been kicked, 'cause I avoid the close proximity of the back end of them regardless of what I was doing LOL ! One lousy dog or kid acting up, lot of things going on, better him than me in that photo LOL !
Cool you posted a shot of the arena drag, always some different and preferred, usually very expensive drag, I've done a lot of that, fussy, had better be flat and the fluff on top not to deep, actually a pain in the neck if the footing gets let go too long. Looked like great weather !

He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
