EVENTING maestro, William Fox-Pitt celebrated his 50th year by holding a very special demonstration at Hartpury College earlier this spring. And to mark the occasion the Horse & Country team were alongside to capture all the action on camera.
The result? A fascinating two part masterclass featuring two hour-long programmes - one focusing on flatwork, and the other on jumping. Watch the programme first on Horse & Country’s streaming service on Thursday, May 2. Sign up to watch at www.horseandcountry.tv
The "50 Not Out", demonstration saw William providing a great insight into his thoughts on dressage first before moving on to how flatwork exercises and the training structure he has developed then come into play when moving on to the jumping elements of the sport.
Whether a die-hard Fox-Pitt fan or simply looking to gain an understanding of his training methods and to improve your own techniques, sign up for great viewing from this eventing legend.
His prominence in the sport is second to none and the two hours of viewing showcases the huge depth of knowledge and skill he has gained after competing and training for so long in the world of eventing.
William was the first British rider to become eventing’s World No 1, a distinction he achieved in 2002, 2009, 2010 and again in 2014.
He has won an unprecedented 14 CCI****'s and 59 CCI three-day events. His achievements in the sport make him one of the most successful British event riders of all time.
