This is about zara tindall (royalty). I noticed "OLY" being used after "tindall".

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but zara tindall did not have to do much hard work and perseverance to be an equestrian. Bouncing around - rather, sat - on a horse's back, with the horse doing work, is not gruelling; running/sprinting, cycling, etc., is a lot more busy and hard work and requiring perseverance than sitting down. Again - if I'm wrong then please correct me.

Maybe these are just a few persons' opinions, but I can't see horse riding in them. Horse riding is a "posh" "sport", though, isn't it?! Discus, javelin, shot put... even squash! They're more tiresome than being sat on one's derriere, dear.
