Outstanding gold-medal performance from Britain’s oldest Olympian, who’s fought off not just age but plenty of – ahem – ‘mileage’ too!
The GB team have conjured up a great training feat with both Big Star and Valegro (Charlotte Dujardin’s dressage gold-medaller), as both won at London 2012 when aged 9 and 10 respectively and have clearly been tuned to perfection to win again four years later.
To steal that old Yorkshire thing: if Warwickshire were a country, we’d now be in 50th place in the medal table.
