Friends and Family rule Grand Prix classes at Derby...

So I just have to add that.... how cool is it that also at the Derby this weekend, Tuny won the CDI Grand Prix, Courtney and Idocus (Fizzy's dad!) won the Grand Prix Freestyle, and Michael Barisone and Neruda (both of whom were in Germany at the same time of us) won the Grand Prix Special. I don't think it happens so often that a father wins in the CDI Grand Prix classes, while his son wins in the National Grand Prix... let alone that a trainer wins the CDI Grand Prix and her student wins the national one.

So fun!
