Eventing Podcast

The final preview of 2016. We recorded this during the week (twice!) and it crashed (twice!) which is why this is short and lacks enthusiasm. Adelaide has broken us. No Nicole tonight which was difficult, we look at the 10 combinations lining up in the 4*....we have an agreed winner. We find a record that has already been broken (not a great one!) and we look at Oliver and Napolean in the CIC3*. Cross country could be interesting. Anyway, this one is short.  Get in touch with us on Twitter or Facebook using #eventingpodcast.

In the first of the Eventing Podcast 'Locker Room Talk' series, Sam Watson talks to New Zealand International Tim Price in a candid interview to find out what makes him one of the best in the world and how he dealt with the highs and lows of his 2016 season. Covering everything from Wesko, the Olympics & Event Rider Masters, it is a genuine insight into the mindset and resilience of one of the world's top event riders. What is it that you think makes Tim so special or is there anyone you would like to feature in a #EventingPodcast Locker Room Talk series? Get in touch with us on Twitter or Facebook using #eventingpodcast, we’d love to hear from you!

As the last major event of the season we cannot wait to see the future stars shine on the Championship stage for the very first time. Sam comes to us live from Le Lion with special guests Jonelle Price and Chris Burton, both of whom have strong chances this weekend.  We hear more about their mounts and Sam's Golfing exploits (he might mention the fact that he beat Burto & Tim Price once or twice).

As the last European 4* of the season Pau did not disappoint.  The leaderboard shuffled throughout the competition and Diarm's #TopTip Maxime Livio took the title for the home crowd (we will be hearing about this for some time no doubt!).

As we look ahead to the last European 4* of the season in Pau it is hard to look past the impressive stats of Michi Jung and both of his challengers this time around. Chris Burton, Tim Price & Karin Donckers are all top names who will challenge but none of whom are selected as this weeks top picks by the team.
