The inner-city venue may not host exactly the type of course that Mark is used with the big man having competed at eight Olympic games, five World Championships and multiple winner at Badminton and Burghley five. He has been awarded the MBE (1984), the CBE (1995), in 2000 he was voted the 'Event Rider of the 20th Century' by the FEI and he received a Knighthood in 2013
As well as competing at Equestrian In The Park Mark will be making public appearances throughout the day and he will be teaching a sold-out clinic at Oakford Equestrian Centre where fence-sitting tickets are available
