She was oblivious to the BBC crew, who were filming a well-known advanced eventer at the competition, but also taking footage of her with Wisdom.
The night Shoestring Rider was scheduled, Ms Larimar arranged for all the boarders, including Emma, to watch it in the barn office. Everyone was comfortably seated in various armchairs and sofas covered with the barn cat’s hairs, nibbling at pizza and sipping on champagne out of plastic tumblers to celebrate the occasion.
First the cameras zoomed in on Blakewell Stables, with an ‘incidental’ close-up of Ms Larimar (well done, Jason!).
Then came Emma’s helmet camera video of Wisdom’s uncontrolled jumping approach. This was to illustrate the problem requiring Jason’s help.
Next came the interview with Emma. She stood proudly next to Wisdom, as Jason asked about her general riding experience and her six month association with the grey.
