Sir Mark Todd wins Badminton 2011
In the video below Sir Mark Todd, winner of four Badminton titles, talks to Jonty Evans about competing at this year’s Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials
Although Toddy’s top horse NZB Campino has been withdrawn, he will be competing on Major Milestone and a new horse, Ravenstar.
Mark wryly says Major Milestone’s most likely win at Badminton will be the Glentrool Trophy (awarded to the horse and rider who have made greatest improvement on their dressage placing) and comments on how to beat Michael Jung (poor Michael must be getting a complex by now about all these people determined not to let him win Badminton!)
However humble his comments may be about his chances of winning this year, we think he is always a force to be reckoned with, however strong the field. We’re really looking forward to watching him fly around the massive course again and you can be sure that Libby Law will have her lenses focussed on him for us at Badminton – go, Sir Toddy!
