Riders have commented that the track for the eight- and nine-year-old CCI4*-S is particularly strong this year, as they assess the Blenheim Horse Trials cross-country course, designed by David Evans.

Izzy Taylor said after her CCI4*-L dressage test early this morning that she had had a quick look at both tracks yesterday.
