I was informed that some farmers put considerable pressure on their daughters to perform well in the various events, because not only does winning a Gold Medal bring glory to the girl, it can also significantly increase the market value of the horse!
You will see a van selling stovies in the background. Stovies is traditionally a left over dish from the Sunday Roast, using the tatties, meat and dripping leftovers all thrown into one pot. The origins of stovies are said to come from a time when masters would give their servants the left over food from Sunday lunch. They would take this home or to their quarters and make a dish that could last them all week and was easy to cook.
