Badminton Cancelled

3rd May 2012

Event sadly cancelled

The recent exceptional rainfall has left the ground at Badminton totally waterlogged and partially flooded. Further rain is due this week leaving no chance of the ground drying out. Very sadly therefore the 2012 Mitsubishi Motors Badminton Horse Trials has been cancelled.

We were all geared up for another great year at Badminton, but the weather had other ideas. We'll miss seeing our customers there, old and new - if you were planning to visit our stand why not give us a call instead? 

Otherwise it's on to the next show for us - see the Show Dates earlier in "News" for our next few dates.
