"From Badminton to Royal Windsor to — Exmoor. Last week I paid my first visit to the legendary Golden Horseshoe endurance ride whose future was jeopardised by declining numbers, but is thriving again thanks to the addition of innovative classes and pleasure rides. Few modern endurance rides involve the rough and tumble of this one, though this year's glorious weather afforded superb footing."
