The victorious British Team – David Broom on Heatwave, Harvey Smith on Salvador, Paddy McMahon on Penwood Forgemill and Graham Fletcher on Tauna Dora at Hickstead in 1975, truly the Golden Age of Show Jumping.
Frank Waters, well known international horse show and horse sport announcer has created a fabulous Facebook page called The Golden Age of Show Jumping. As a young boy in England he thrilled to the superstars of the show ring like Pat Smythe, Marion Coakes, Alan Oliver, Harvey Smith, Joe Fargis and so many more.
If you enjoy a trot back in time with a dash of nostalgia, you are going to love this site; many of the people featured were/are friends of Mr. Waters and his stories and photos from England, Ireland and North America are terrific.
