2013 Badminton Winner Competes at Tattersalls International Horse Trials
10 NATIONS REPRESENTED AT TATTS 2013
The 2013 Tattersalls International Horse Trials & Country Fair in association with Horse Sport Ireland was launched today. This year’s event sees competitors representing ten different nations from as far as Japan, Australia, New Zealand, USA and Canada as well at the usually strong home representation.
A host of top International riders will compete at Tatts 2013 including Jock Paget hot from his success in last weekend’s Badminton Horse Trials along with current World Number 1 and 2013 Rolex Kentucky Horse Trials winner Andrew Nicholson.
An incredible 320 horse and rider combinations will tackle Ian Stark’s jaw dropping course at the Ratoath venue which last saw current World Number 2 William Fox-Pitt dominate the event by winning the feature class, The Irish Field CCI*** for the second consecutive year. This year he returns with Chilli Morning whom he competed at the recent Rolex Kentucky Three Day Event, aiming to complete the hat-trick.
According to Roger Casey, Managing Director of Tattersalls Ireland, “A year after the excitement of the London Olympics we are very much looking forward to welcoming back top Irish and International Eventers such as 2013 Badminton Horse Trials winner Jock Paget and previous Tattersalls winner William Fox-Pitt along with Irish Olympic team members Aoife Clark, Mark Kyle, Camilla Speirs, Joseph Murphy and Michael Ryan as they compete in the highly contested Tattersalls International Horse Trials. While all the action is an absolute must-see, Tatts is now also one of the top family days out over the June Bank Holiday weekend. We offer real value and top quality attractions to suit all tastes and ages. So make sure to mark your diaries and join us for what promises to be our best year yet.”
