Gee up Ecclestone!

That Ecclestone gets everywhere. This week Ecclestone, ridden by Francine Gueros, will compete in the French national dressage competitions at Saumur. Ecclestone will take on Scotland Yard (an odd name for a horse), Desperado, Picasso, Fun, Nearly Perfect, Greystoke and a horse with the rather unusual name of "O" (presumably named because of an affinity with the whip).

We will let you know whether Ecclestone will be as successful in the equestrian arts as he is in F1...
