Just two weeks to go until the start of Badminton Horse Trials on 3rd May. To date 10 Irish combinations have been confirmed and there are still three on the wait list. This years competitors will be tackling Eric Winter’s debut course which greatly resembles the swashbuckling tracks of the 1970’s, but with the advantage of 21st century safety technology. Unlike many modern courses there is a deliberate lack of superfluous decoration with most fences using massive rustic timber.
