William Fox-Pitt at Burnham Market 2015
William Fox-Pitt’s horses were competing at Aldon on the weekend but William wasn’t in the saddle just yet.
Harry Meade rode Reinstated, the horse that William fell from at Le Lion d’Angers in October, while Hector Payne competed Balu Gidran, Red Kite and Yes I Can. However it won’t be long before we see William back competing, as he is aiming for Burnham Market the first weekend of April according to his website
“I have been checked by the specialist and have been cleared to compete. Yogi came down this week and we jumped four horses together and it very much feels like all systems go. A big thank you to everyone who has supported me through my recovery. I am looking forward to working with Chilli Morning and the rest of the horses and getting going with the season”
