It's all about the horses in today's papers.
The revelation that former Sun editor Rebekah Brooks was lent a police horse by the Metropolitan Police is manna for many of the papers.
Brooks, aka "flame-haired Rebekah Brooks" (16,600 Google results), was one of 12 people to "foster" a retired gee-gee in 2008.
She paid for food and vet bills and returned the horse later in a "poor but not serious condition", according to the Met.
Having scoured the Sun twice, it's difficult to find where the story is. A bit like a needle in a haystack. Ho ho.
But everybody else has fun. Daily Mail: "How Rebekah Brooks got a 'gift' horse from the Met".
Mediocre.
Daily Mirror: Are cops too close to the Sun? Well, it's a stable relationship.."
Better.
Daily Telegraph: "Rebekah Brooks and the police 'gift' horse".
Deja vu.
The Telegraph puts it on the front.
And there's even more equine news as most of the papers have a series of gripping photos from the successful rescue of a horse trapped up to its neck in mud in Melbourne as the tide came in.
It's a whinny-whinny situation for all concerned.
Sorry.
