Don't think Francesca's frock...

Cant be good for her mental healh being that Beautiful knowing every red blooded man wants to hump her.

Or maybe it is.

2 sexist posts....reported

Bit skinny for me, saffie looking good

on the horses i fancy the outsiders ,on women i prefer the certaintys !

Was it John Francombe who said "in life there are only two certainties,death and nurses"

did she ever ride in those amateur races where the winner gets  the weight in champers?

I rarely comment on what women wear on tv let alone on horseracing tv. I think what she wore yesterday was perfect. The garment was summery, casual yet classy and very appropriate and pleasing to the eye. She and the dress complimented each other. The material was free-flowing and perfect for the day's weather and heat.

Class act and very good looking,steeped in the game and easy to understand what she is saying….one of the few i go mute.

Are you sure Reg!? I’m still trying to work this line out!

The latter hardly has the curves of J - Lo

As I was taught in my formative years, “Any port in a storm.”

Aye Captain!

Mrs Vest commented on her posh voice , then said her dress looks like a Hermes.. probly 5k plus

FOYLESWAR you may or may not know the option to post a photo on here is currently unavailable. 

Best I can do is provide a link to a photo which is shown below the paragraph of italic text.  I've used tinyurl to shorten the link so that it's easier to copy and then paste into the address bar.

Francesca Cumani celebrates with the trophy on some scales after being winning her weight in champagne for riding Soulacroix to victory in the opening race The Queen Mother's Cup Handicap Stakes at York on 17th June 2006.

cheers top2 i had it in my head she may have won but wernt sure, shoulda googled it  i spose . another franchesca or franca vittidini i recall winning those diamonds back in the 70s or 80s

Mate did the stable tours a few years ago , said she looked even nicer sans war paint and outfit .

Aristo horse racing rider winning weight in champagne - cost of living, food banks, what ho

She looks great again today in yellow (my favourite colour)....she carries off the tilted worn hats perfectly....all round beautiful woman

Don't see the point of the other nine though..

....tilted hats seem to be her preference lead on and she looks great in whichever one she wears imo

Gives me pain to think bell E was with her ……unimaginable tbh….

I think the bell ended it (allegedly)…..ffs

Ah, got quite a few replies eventually. Actually i think as stunning as she is, she looks better with her clothes on than in her bikini photos. As Reg says she's a bit on the slim side, Reg should know his sister was Olive, very voluptuous.

You can thank me stew for getting the ball rolling for you.

Been a few balls rolling over this post IMO

Indeed Acey, thank you.

Wouldn't be my cup of tea

I actually agree.

Sally Ann would be my choice of dinner date, definitely.

What is wrong with you people….

I was watching the parade for the Eclipse meeting a few weeks ago and F.C. walked past me whilst doing her thing.

At close quarters, she is absolutely stunning looking and has immense grace and elegance combined. The Darcey Bussell of the equine world if you will.

I'd pick Meghan Nicholls over F.C. though having said all that.

Meghan for me....Never fancied a tall bird in me life. Small feet with a rack is the way forward

Stewarts rise 14.03 post...actress Anna Karen who played Olive, was actually quite attractive
No disputing Francesca is very good looking, but I can't imagine her supping a few pints down the Dog and Duck, followed by a Ruby at the Bombay Express.

Probably not Reg, but i think very posh birds like a bit of rough, as you say Anna Karen herself was a bit of a looker in reality

Anna Karen was defintely voluptuous. I saw her in the nude.










At Sheffield Crucible in a play called "Steaming".   

The grace and elegance are definitely from her mum. Her mum was a stunner and graceful too.

Anna Karen was actually a model when she was young.

yes reg you hard to  imagine the posh un  knocking back pickled onions in bed like olive  in on the busses

suprised they let you in with no clothes on salmon but each to their own i spose.

The scene I always laughed at most from one of the films was when Olive went to bed and when enquiring how long Arthur would be he told her he wanted to watch the end of the film and she said, but I'll be sleeping by then and he said....Oh dear, he delivered that line perfectly
