Horse Racing and Horse-riding in Britain
Sport has a long and famous tradition in British history. Most
popular world sports were born in the UK: football, tennis, golf,
cricket, and rugby. Do not forget the many others including
boxing, table tennis, hockey, and squash. Horse racing is one of the most famous pleasures in Great Britain.
The Romans brought the idea of horse racing to the British
shores. Although the British already had a great love for the
animals and used them a lot, soldiers organised the first
competitions only around 200 AD. By the 10th century, the sport
had become quite popular.
In 1711, Queen Anne founded Ascot horse races and since that
time British monarchs have supported them. Royal racing at
Ascot is held every year in the third week in June. The Queen
takes a close personal interest in the running of Ascot. Though
people still think that horse racing is the sport of kings, today it
has become one of the most popular entertainments for the
British. Royal Ascot is a very important part of British culture.
The Grand National first appeared in 1839. It is a National Hunt
horse race, which takes place each year in Liverpool. Horses jump
30 fences in this race and cover a distance of 7,141 km. The Grand
National has an advantage over other hunt horse racings because
it is the longest race in Britain.
In any horse racing there are two winners: a leading horse and
a leading jockey. Horse race fans are also proud of leading trainers
and leading horse owners.
Horse-riding is another popular outdoor activity in Britain.
Families can enjoy this activity all together. Children usually get
very excited about it. When people start riding, they need
specialist instruction to find the right horse for them. The riding
instructor tells horse riders what to wear on their feet and also
what type of trousers to wear. A horse rider must wear a hard hat.
Horse-riding is a great physical activity because the horse does
not do the whole work. A rider does a lot of work too. People who
love horse-riding usually have good athletic training. Horse-
riding also gives an opportunity to spend a lot of time in the fresh
air. Horse-riding can give some important life lessons too.
Children and teenagers take care of horses and ponies. Riders are
responsible for horses. Horse-riding is great fun for different
people. Disabled people* do horse-riding too. This sort of activity helps them to relax, become physically stronger and have a better
and more interesting life. Disabled people improve coordination
and enjoy their riding achievements. There are over 500 centres
across England, Wales, and Scotland where disabled people can
take riding lessons on trained horses.

everybody have their own dreams and goals. and sometimes we have to face the problems, connected with our wishes. we start to give up, to think that it's not for us and we have to do something different. but it's just a lesson that life gives us, we should do what we decided to do no matter, what. because it's the only way to make our dreams come true. In some people's opinion it's stupid to follow your goals, but I don't agree with them. obstacles make us stronger, than we were, plus it's a good way to prove everyone that you're great person.
