Royal Windsor reinstates pairs driving class

A CAI-A horse pairs class is back on the international driving grand prix schedule at Royal Windsor Horse Show next month.

Organisers tried to limit the international classes to four-in-hands only and run invitation classes for pairs, singles and tandems (news, 11 January).

But as European and British drivers prepare to contest the World Pair Driving Championships this summer, it was decided to upgrade the horse pairs to international status.
