Here is what his owner has to say about him. " After having him nearly 9 years, Twice is my horse of every month, but think he deserved a special little mention as he has just completed his first winter living out 24/7. At 17 his old joints get very stiff when he is kept in and he also exhibits every stable vice you can think of. So this year I let him grow his coat and left him out. Its not been easy, there's been mud fever and soft frogs to contend with, but other than that I hope you can see hes done really well! " Horse of The Month March 2013 Night Driver Meet Night Driver. Night Driver is a 14 year old bay gelding that ran on the flat and over hurdles. Here is what his new owner says about him. " l rescued him from Bahrain 5 years ago and took him to the UAE where we lived until 2 years ago. I ride him without a bit in a string head collar this picture was our first attempt at jumping without anything and he was brilliant. He always tries to please whether on the ground or in the saddle. I like this picture because he looks so free and l am very proud of him!"
