Oliver Townend accepts a plethora of prizes for his decisive victory in Blair’s CIC3*. Photo by Tilly Berendt.
Today might be National Dog Day, but yesterday was Townend’s day! He had horses in first, second, third and sixth after dressage in the CIC3* at Blair Castle, and withdrew those heavy-hitters. Much to the dismay of those watching (and Oliver himself) he still managed to win it with his ninth-placed ride. The man is on fire. Catch up with Tilly’s report here to read all about it.
