Got teased about it a lot even from primary school (even 5 and 6 year-olds hear of the Royal Ascot meet...), but I never fell in love with horses.
Only ever been on the back of one in my life, so far as I can recall.
Of course, winding up 6'2" and less than a beanpole, it's a good thing I didn't want to be a jockey. ;)
