We are delighted to announce that Will Rawlin, Emily King and William Fox-Pitt will be joining us as ambassadors for BPIHT.

Will Rawlin is a 5* Event rider, gaining successful results at all levels with his current team of horses. With his first Burghley in his sights for 2024, Will’s focus at Blenheim this year will not be on competing, but on demonstrating how he trains his horses, from those in their early years of training to those right at the top of the sport. For those interested in finding out more about Will, there will be the opportunity to do so in his Q&A on the Chat Stage located near the main arena and during a Meet & Greet in the VIP Pavilion.

Emily King is a Double European Medallist, U21 National Champion and is a successful international event rider right up to the very top of the sport. With her horse Jackpot entered into the CCI4*-L this year, it will be a great opportunity to see Emily’s preparation for the event and to follow her throughout the three days of competition. Emily will also be showcasing how she supports other riders, training one of her students at BPIHT in the Blenheim Arena.

British Olympian William Fox-Pitt is one of Britain’s all-time great event riders. During his long career, he won an unprecedented 14 five-stars and more than 50 three-day events, as well as 20 senior championship medals. William announced his retirement from competing at the top level at Badminton Horse Trials in 2024.

At Blenheim, William is heralded as the greatest champion to date, with five victories to his name, all on different horses. It began in 2000 where he took the top spot with Stunning and then again in 2010 on Parklane Hawk and in 2012 with Seacookie. Oslo was his first ride to become the 8&9 year old Champion in 2011. 2013 was a particularly special one for William as he did the double on two separate horses, winning both 8/9 year old class with Fernhill Pimms and the CCI4*-L on Stormseason.
