Although today, Friday, is a quieter day here at The Festival of British Eventing, it’s already all systems go. Mark Todd has just taken the four year old Burghley Young Event Horse Qualifier on the lovely Opposition Supremacy.
By Fleetwater Oppositon, he’s a 17hh black stallion, does he remind you of anyone?
Also by Fleetwater Opposition, the amazing Opposition Buzz.
Dogs are about on a par with kids here, or perhaps a level above?!
Dogs, kids and horses everywhere. The tradestands are already doing brisk business
Lunch is served: the EN picnic hamper!
If you can’t afford the mac-daddy Range Rover or Land Rovers on display here, then there’s a more eco-friendly alternative.
Many thanks and full marks to the Press Tent here – super fast internet, sandwiches with the crust cut off, and tea and shortbread biscuits. When I die I think I’m coming to Gatcombe!
More soon, thanks for joining us, and Go Eventing!
