Houghton Hall

Sir Mark Todd leads the CICO3* at Houghton Hall putting New Zealand on top of the individual and team leader board

Dressage is done for the CCI1* and they head out on cross country tomorrow while the 2* and FEI Nations Cup classes are still strutting their stuff in front of the beautiful Houghton Hall in Norfolk

The event organisers have had their BBQ, the first horse inspections are done and dressage is underway at Houghton Hall International where it is going to be a busy week

The parkland surrounding Houghton Hall will be a hive of activity this weekend as it provides the stunning background for the Houghton International Horse Trials incorporating the FEI Nations Cup and National U21 Eventing Champion

Beautiful weather for the final day of competition at Houghton Hall and the next stop for most riders (and us) is Tattersalls in Ireland
