    ‘This is my coloured collection of “mini-mes”. The Shetland is called Peggy Sue, the middle sized pony is Tinkerbelle and the large horse is Morse. I'm not sure how I have ended up owning three coloureds but they are all wonderful.’ — Louise Barr

    ‘This is my daughter Natalie Anderson riding Harry, a 16hh dark bay thoroughbred-cross and Honor Gartland riding Rolo, a 12.2hh dark bay Section B. Natalie got Rolo when she was 10-years-old and he was sold to Honor two years later. They met up by chance at a cross-country schooling event a few years later by which time she had Harry so we took this photo as we couldn't get over the likeness.’ — Susan Anderson

    ‘This photo was taken at Cavan Festival of me and my best friend's daughter in the pairs class with my horse Brave Endeavour and her wee pony George — both nearly identical bar their height. It's especially good as they are so well matched in their paces as well.’ — Nicky Nesbitt

    ‘This is me on my 17.2hh Shire X thoroughbred, Melody and my daughter Hannah, eight, on her Welsh Section C, LaLa. This was our first hack out together just under a year after I badly broke my leg mounting Melody at the exact spot we are at in the photo and I was airlifted to hospital. From the outset I had every intention of getting back on!’ — Emma Coward
