Badminton Grassroots

Our eventing grassroots blogger, Anna Martin, shares her journey to the Mitsubishi Motors Cup at Badminton Horse Trials next week.

Introducing Anna Martin’s horse of a lifetime, Sannanvalley Classic! It was love at first sight for this coloured mare with the amazing black eyes

We are delighted to welcome our new eventing grassroots blogger, Anna, who will be sharing her journey to the Mitsubishi Motors Cup at Badminton Horse Trials in May.

Still on a massive high from her Badminton Grassroots Championships experience, Laura Barber continues to pinch herself that it did all really happen. Here she relives her incredible adventure with her lovely horse, Tally, and is still smiling.

“As I sit here writing this, we are now just 1 day away from making our trip down to the hallowed grounds of the Badminton Estate. It would be safe to say that I’ve been experiencing a fairly wide range of emotions, alternating between ridiculously excited and extremely nervous and just about everything in between!”

We are delighted to welcome Jo Boggon, our Grassroots Gardener, to the blogging team. Jo is competing in the BE100 Grassroots Championships having competed there three times before. Jo describes herself as an OAP but somehow juggles an incredibly hectic landscape designing business with her passion for her ponies. As well as sharing her news, Jo will be providing us with helpful gardening tips!

We are delighted to introduce Laura Barber as the newest member of our blogging team. Laura and her 17.1h horse Tally are currently preparing for the Badminton Grassroots Championships in the 90. It hasn’t been the easiest of journeys.
