Horses on courses

The cross country course at the Longines FEI European Championships at Blair Castle will test the best in the world with its hilly terrain and technical aspects but there is a great team of vets on hand to take care of all of the horses on cross country day

The welfare of the horses involved is paramount to any major event; AEL blogger Christopher Elliott is part of the team caring for the horses at Blair Castle and he tells us of the preparations in place for cross country and why the course at Blair is unique
