Badminton CCI****, Gloucestershire

Alex hopes to compete for the first time at Mitsubishi Badminton Horse Trials, which takes place every spring by kind permission of His Grace the Duke of Beaufort, MFH, on the wonderful estate of Badminton House. Cross-country day has one of the largest spectator attendance figures in the world for one day as tens of thousands flock to watch. Next year the event will be held over a Bank Holiday weekend, with dressage on the Friday/Saturday, Cross-country on Sunday and Showjumping on the Monday holiday. Map
