Tina Cook to host first solo lecture demonstration this month

European Eventing Champion and H&H columnist Tina Cook is hosting her first ever solo lecture demonstration this month.

“Thoroughbreds are one of my main areas of expertise, so retraining racehorses as eventers will be one of the main themes of the evening,” says Tina, who works extensively with her brother — trainer Nick Gifford — around her eventing.

Tina’s European European champion ride Miners Frolic, himself a full thoroughbred, will participate in the demo, as will several of her other eventers.

The demo takes place at Merrist Wood College, Guildford, Surrey, on Wednesday 17 February.

Doors open at 6.45pm for a 7.30pm start, and tickets cost £25 for adults and £20 for under 16s.
