The annual, three-day equestrian competition known as the Festival of British Eventing concluded today at Princess Anne's estate, Gatcombe Park, in Gloucestershire, two hours west of London. Among the events were show jumping, cross country and dressage. The horses' and riders' abilities were tested throughout each of the disciplines: dressage shows off the technical training, cross country tests the horses' stamina and speed, and jumping tests for courage.
There were also sheep dog displays and Kennel Club competitions where dogs ran through agility drills.- Text and images by Erica Vines.
