First undertaking after doing the media accreditation paperwork (minimal, mainly nigh collecting the all of import luncheon pass!) was walking the course. While the Grassroots competitors did their matter nearby, nosotros marched around the course.  It’s beautifully built, it’s long, its going to live challenging but it didn’t seem every bit frightening every bit when I offset saw it inwards 1981.  It was at that quest inwards my life I decided that I mightiness concentrate to a greater extent than on showjumping …

Towards the destination of the course of written report nosotros spotted Andrew Nicholson inwards the distance, on the very, really eyecatching Nereo.  While nosotros were a long agency away, that Equus caballus looks fantastic. Got a closer await at Michael Jung, who unfortunately had only finished doing a chip of dressage schooling together with then couldn’t actually run across what all the fuss was nigh every bit he walked along on a unloosen rein …

People are starting to flock into the media centre, together with I dare say at that spot volition live a rush after inwards the afternoon every bit nosotros approach the fourth dimension for the offset trot up, inwards forepart of the magnificent Badminton House.

In the meantime, here are the pictures I took of the course.
