Leading contenders safely through the final horse inspection

All the leading contenders for the Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials are safely through this morning’s final horse inspection.

Fifty-six combinations will come forward for the final showjumping phase, which will begin at 11am for the lower-placed competitors.

Flora Harris’s Law Choice (19th overnight) was sent to the holding box and subsequently withdrawn, while Lucie McNichol’s Zeus Of Rushall (30th) and Aoife Clark’s Vaguely North were not presented.
At 1.45pm there will be a parade of competitors, which will be followed immediately by the showjumping finale for the top 20.
