    Why we’re excited about it: Cirencester returned to the British Eventing calendar last year, having been cancelled due to Covid-19 in 2020, and the vote of approval it won from riders is shown in the fact it has added an extra day (Monday) to this event because it had so many entries. With the Badminton Horse Trials entries now revealed, there are 14 Badminton-entered horses in the advanced intermediate at Cirencester, including Zara Tindall’s ride Class Affair having his second run of 2021.
