Famous female people/characters who ride horses
Hi all,
I know it's a strange question, but can anyone name a well known female, either a fictional character or real person, for who horse riding is an important part of their lives?
Many thanks,
NS04

the film was 'National Velvet'
Elizabeth Taylor played the girl jockey in the first film.
Think there's been a remake but don't now the name of the character.

Didn't Jodie Kidd (model) retire from the catwalk a few years back to play polo for the England team?

MY GF is a infant school teacher and has to think of a character for herself in a school play. This means costumes, expense etc.. so we're trying to think of characters that match clothing/gear that she already has. She rode horses extensively when she was a bit younger, so has equipment etc... If we could find a character that would enable her to wear this, it would make her life a lot easier! Trouble is....I just couldn't think of any...apart from Camilla PB, which I'm not sure would go down too well!
Any other ideas?

Liz Halliday ? Somehow manages to balance being a driver in the International GT sports car series with being an Olympic class 3-day eventer. Some people are just way too talented
