Badminton Horse Trials 2024: final round-up

New Zealand’s Caroline Powell and Greenacres Special Cavalier were crowned winners of the 2024 Mars Badminton Horse Trials on the 75th anniversary of the Gloucestershire five-star.
The pair rose from sixth overnight to be crowned champions, by virtue of their flawless showjumping round.
Ireland’s Lucy Latta - a one-horse rider with a full-time job, making her five-star debut - rose from 46th after dressage to finish second.
Alex Bragg and Quindiva were the best of the Brits, climbing from 51st after the first phase to take third place.
While the final showjumping rounds were still taking place, H&H also heard from Emily King, Tom Rowland, Bubby Upton and Gemma Stevens…

Interesting that many of the Olympic hopefuls were not in the mix. No Oliver Townend, Yasmeen Ingram, Tom McEwen, Roz Canter’s other horse, Laura Collett’s as well. Also, the show jumping played a huge part in the final places. Only three can go to Paris ( a new rule of which I don't approve).It will mean no discount score. I hope the selectors get it right. They all need one last big competition with all there before a final trio is picked. Not like the disaster that was Rio 2016. when the selectors got it so wrong,
