The final five-star of 2026 certainly gave us plenty to talk about, and what a way for Tim Price to finish the season. Nicole is joined by newly crowned Eventing Manager champion Sharon Ridgway to look back at Les 5 Étoiles de Pau, where Tim Price and Jarillo made history with back-to-back victories. And it wasn't just Tim having a good weekend, with Jonelle putting three horses in the top nine. There's a brilliant result for Bubby Upton and It's Cooley Time after a difficult 2025, plenty of excitement around Tom McEwen's Quintus and a few moments from cross-country day that nobody saw coming. Plus, Nicole and Diarm's Willa Newton versus Lizzie Baugh showdown gets settled, Sharon shares her horses to watch for 2027 and there's a rather exciting new addition to Michael Jung's string. Highlights The Price is right: A historic win for Tim and an impressive six horses in the top 16 for the Price household. Bubby bounces back: Why It's Cooley Time's Pau performance could be a turning point. One for the future: Is Quintus already looking like a serious LA 2028 prospect? Pau's talking points: The tricky fences, unexpected falls and some desperately unlucky combinations. Looking to 2027: Michael Jung's new ride and the horses Sharon has her eye on.
