Horse & Hound will be bringing you our live and interactive written commentary service during all three phases, thanks to the support of our sponsor SPILLERS Horse Feeds. If you would like to stay up to date with all the news from SPILLERS, why not join their Team SPILLERS page on facebook?
The dressage phase begins at around 10am on Good Friday, 22 April and H&H eventing editor Pippa Roome will be joined by top international dressage rider and trainer Anna Ross Davies. Anna will be sharing her insightful and witty comments throughout both days of dressage action.
On Easter Sunday (24 April), Pippa will be joined by H&H’s website editor Carol Phillips, who is also a big eventing fan, to bring you all the highs and lows of the cross-country phase, while on Easter Monday (25 April) Carol will be holding the fort as the competition comes to a close with the all-important final showjumping phase.
