The REAL Badminton Horse Trials 2024

This is my full 40 minute version video featuring my exciting unique collection of cross country action from the 2024 running of the world famous Badminton Horse Trials in England
The conditions seemed perfect and the course was quite different with the riders enjoying two visits to the Vicarage Field. Once again there were less than 50% of competitors completed. We started our day at the Lake and then made our way out towards the Mars Equestrian Sustainability Bay and then back around the central section of the course. We didn't make it to Huntsman Close or the Quarry
This is very much the spectators view of the competition to complement the version I rush released on the evening of the competition. This time I've not cut much out, so as well as the action you get some back of heads and hats just so you get a real feel of the event. I hope nobody says anything too bad on the soundtrack, the microphone does tend to pick everything up! Listen out for the mum telling her child to "squeeze in there" but also to "watch the camera!" As I say there is an alternative shorter version if you'd prefer a quicker review of the day.

I’ve not been living up to my name (Patience) but here it is and I’m so very grateful! No one captures the feeling of being there like you do. Just brilliant. ❤😊

[@harveywetdog]

Patience - thank you very much, it was a great day

[@susanbilodeau7793]

You are the best! Thank you for filming this.

[@sarahcooper3378]

Great footage. Thank you.

[@janeminwell4395]

You really capture the essence of eventing, the rhythm of the hooves between fences, the bravery of the horses, and especially the crowd reaction. ( There must be many in that enormous crowd who are non-horsey, which gives hope for the future of Equestrianism). Thankyou for a wonderful vlog.

[@harveywetdog]

Thank you so much

[@XHeidi_and_ConnieX]

Wow

[@lori5455]

[@harveywetdog]

Thank you

[@VK-qe7if]

Brilliant coverage. Thank you. 😊

[@CarolStJohn-ev9ry]

You made me feel like I was there, thank you so much! The whole venue is absolutely gorgeous (those Trees!) and the horses and riders were magnificent.

[@harveywetdog]

Thank you - we were blessed with the weather and yes, all the trees in the U.K. are looking at their best at the moment as the new leaves bring them back to life

[@kileym1307]

amazing footage as always!!! i really look forward to your videos!!! it's amazing to be able to watch such fun xc! my dream is one day be able to go in person.

[@harveywetdog]

Thank you and I hope you make it

[@zoeilobowdery8778]

Brilliant Thank you they never bothered to show badminton horse trials in tv they never show any equestrian events anymore 🇬🇧🇫🇴

[@HollyJordan15]

Thank you!

[@angiedyer1511]

Thank you so much for the footage!❤

[@kippen64]

Thanks so much for this video. It's keenly appreciated. It has me regretting that I didn't do horses more seriously when I was younger. To trundle around Badminton on the right horse and using some of the options, would have been epic. In the meantime, there's a 2*L to aim for and your great videos to watch. (I recently had my birthday, hence the regret.)

[@harveywetdog]

Thanks for your comment. You enjoy competing at your 2*L and remember that’s a great achievement. All I’ll say is that to compete at 5* needs a very special horse and rider and I remember many years ago looking at one of the rider frightening leaps over a chasm and saying “I’d never want to be good enough to jump that!” Non, je ne regrette rien

[@ImogenC-rt3fm]

Thanks Wetdog. Cat Lady 's feeling grumpy today but it seems like I'm seeing an awful lot shoulders being batted on horses that aren't even sucking back. ???? Thought ground juries and FEI had cracked down on that? Am barking?

[@harveywetdog]

Fair point
