The international classes were focussed on the dressage at the Barefoot Retreats Burnham Market International on Friday, where Oliver Townend leads the CCI4*-S riding Ballaghmor Class and Bubby Upton leads the CCI3*-S on board Viktor Krum after the first of two days of dressage (read more and listen to our rider interviews on Friday at Burnham Market here)

But Friday saw several combinations already get some wins under the belt with several of the National classes having completed.  The winners included some exciting young horses such as Gemma Stevens' six-year-old stallion Chilli Morning IV, who is a genetically identical clone to the Badminton winning stallion, Chilli Morning, and six-year-old Shannondale Arnold, a relatively new ride for Tom McEwen, who took a win on an impressive score of 18!

Well done to today's class winners at Burnham Market!
