Eliza with Cerys and her horse 'Casino Royale' [02:42]
After a first visit to the Races for Eliza's friend Cerys, the morning after is spent at a Livery yard near Preston. Cerys had worked at a racing stables in the past but had never been to the races. She has a beautiful strong horse called Cassie; or Casino Royale; with who she is hoping to do eventing or dressage. Cassie is an exciting prospect. Watch how while Cerys scaratches her withers the horse responds in a mutual grooming reaction. Horsey folk call this 'whiffling'. Cerys tells me how much she enjoyed her first trip to the races and how a pink hat is on her wish list for her next trip!
