The Sleeping Tiger: Bogarde's riding abilities
Various articles on Dirk Bogarde's private life suggest that, although he owned horses and liked to dress as a country gentleman, he didn't care to ride or drive.The various riding scenes in "The Sleeping Tiger" (probably filmed together in a short time) appear to show D.B. [not a stand-in] as a rider able to handle a horse at speed and not just posing in the saddle (as in "The Singer Not The Song").Does anyone know the facts (or anything concrete) about his equestrian interests and abilities?
