Well I dunno about the red button stuff but the 'highlights' on iplayer weren't very comprehensive. Mainly the Grand Prix in which the Brits didn't fare too well. Not much else. I don't know about anyone else, but I started to get very irritated by the commentators constantly referring to the horses as 'it' instead of he or she!

Thanks for that susan - I'll check it out see if it is available here tho I can actually watch some American on-line TV sites by sneaky use of the net so may be able to track it down somewhere.
