Tim and Wild Duchess at the 2014 Exhibition Eventing Grand Final, three weeks after flying home
Tim Boland had a busy year in 2014 with an overseas campaign that saw him, his partner Sophie and his horses based in the UK for much of the year. We spoke to Tim at Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials where he was disappointed with GV Billy Elliot’s dressage test and so decided to re-route to Ballindenisk in Ireland, where he had a good weekend despite getting tangled up in string and a ‘pretty wild 3* course’ – it sounds like this is one event we must check out!
We caught up again with Tim at the Exhibition Eventing Grand Final where he told us about the end of his season in the UK and the team of horses he now has, including the great GV Billy Elliot who is ‘back in business’ and why Lord Limmerick is reunited with Oliver Townend
