14 of the stars who were on show at Cornbury House Horse Trials


  • Last weekend (11-13 September), some of the world’s best event riders and their horses descended on a beautiful corner of The Cotswolds, for the reincarnated Cornbury House Horse Trials, which last ran in 2000.

    Over three days of competition, hundreds of horses ran around the stunning parkland and here we round up just a few of those combinations for you to feast your eyes on…
