William Fox-Pitt on Chilli Morning at Chatsworth International 2016

William Fox-Pitt had just returned to competition after a life threatening fall at Le Lion d’Angers in October 2015, finishing 11^th in the CCI3* (now 4*) at Chatsworth International. The pair went on to be part of the British team at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games a few months later, the famous 5* winning stallion’s last event before retiring to stud.
