Horse and Country TV (SKY Channel 280 televised universally) televised the event – a one hour programme in August and we received the following feedback from the head of programming.
“I'm writing to tell you all the good news that the Glanusk International Horse Trials programme was the most watched show on Horse & Country TV in its premiere week of transmission.
It appeared at the top of our top ten from BARB for that week which we're delighted about - and I hope you are too.
