All about the riders…
Geoff Billington
Geoff Billington is twice a member of the British Olympic squad; Geoff is one of the most respected figures in show jumping. He competed in Atlanta 1996 and Sydney 2000 riding the great horse It’s Otto. His unrivalled enthusiasm and competitive spirit make him a crowd favourite. In 2007 he won the DFS British Jumping derby at Hickstead on Lady Rowallan’s Cassabachus. Fore more information on Geoff go to: www.geoffbillington.com
Oliver Townend
Oliver Townend has an enviable string of horses and there are few competition days when Oliver is not in action – last year that included steering five horses around Burnham Market’s advanced track the day after standing on the winner’s podium at Pratoni. 2007 was Oliver’s best season to date – he clocked up a massive 1886 British Eventing points. Oliver also won Burghley and Badminton in 2009. Find out a lot more at: www.olivertownend.com

There is still time to get your horsy fix whilst your own riding is off the agenda with all that ice and snow with the popular Champions Tour.
“This really is an evening of entertainment for all the family: ‘laugh and learn’ has been key to its popularity and success,” explained Alan Beaumont, show director of the Champions Tour.
“Throughout the evening the riders progress up through the grades with a range of horses of all different levels and abilities,” continued Alan.
Oliver is equally enthusiastic about the tour saying:
“The tour is going really well — it’s great to do something different from what I normally do, and to work with Geoff has definitely been an experience,” remarked Oliver. So for an evening of entertainment that will warm your soul and lift those winter blues, let the entertainment begin, but hurry –spaces strictly limited on all dates!!
