Description
Badminton Horse Trials at 75 celebrates the world's oldest and most prestigious horse trials, marking its 75th anniversary in 2024. Founded in 1949 by the 10th Duke of Beaufort, the event has become an Olympic proving ground and a captivating place where dreams can be made or shattered.
The centrepiece of the event remains the cross-country course, a spectacle that draws thousands of spectators and presents a formidable challenge for riders of all experience levels. This superbly illustrated book tells the story of the riders and their horses who have made the event their own, from Sheila Willcox's historic hat-trick in the 1950s to more recent heroes and heroines.
