Sandringham Royal Estate hosts British Carriagedriving National Driving Trials

The British Carriagedriving National Driving Trials were held on the Royal Estate at Sandringham at the weekend.

Carriage driving trials is a fast exciting sport for all age groups.

It is billed as the only equestrian sport/discipline where you can compete on an equal footing.

The four day event included races in dressage, marathon and cones in many different categories such as single horse, single pony, novice, multiples and open single.

With the support of British Carriage Driving and Zilco Europe, the Bennington Team held for the first time “Try Driving” sessions at Sandringham.

One comment said: "So similar to riding, was blown away with how I felt so connected with the horse."
