I'm deeply sorry for Eric, and everyone involved with this horse. Hickstead was a true champion, and will never be forgotten. He and Eric had an amazing partnership, that led them to becoming champions. I feel lucky to have even know of Hickstead.
Though... now he's up in the big pasture in the sky...
Jump the clouds Hickstead <3

Hickstead was the horse of a lifetime for Eric, I'll never forget Beijing, hair-pinning turns with hat/eyes/tail on fire. Jumping the standards, he was a tricky horse to turn in the beginning, if I recall.
Incredible horse, amazing partnership. Thanks for the memories, and thanks to Verona, what a classy gesture. So nice to see in any sport, but especially mine!
I quit coffee in Aug 2008,when Eric & "Sticks" won gold. Didn't miss it at all, watching them!Like a dragon, flaming around the ring.
I'm gonna miss you Hickstead...you may have gotten over those jumps here on earth without wings, but now you can truly fly.

A champion in every sense of the word. I feel so lucky to have gotten to watch this horse (albeit not in person) in action. In 20 years we'll all still be raving about this horse, just as we still rave about Big Ben now. Who knows what Hickstead may have accomplished had his life not been cut short...
