WHEN Zara Phillips found husband Mike Tindall had bought a quarter share in racehorse Monbeg Dude at an auction in 2010 she reportedly called him an "idiot".

The horse cost former England rugby international Tindall and three friends £12,000 but turned out to be a poor jumper of fences.

However, Ms Phillips, daughter of the Princess Royal and an Olympic equestrian competitor, changed her mind after spending some time training the horse.

And Tindall’s luck was in as the horse romped home in third place at the Grand National, netting £105,500 in prize money. Click link for full post from The Telegraph.
