Here we go! After two years lost during the pandemic, the 2022 Fairfax & Favor Rockingham International Horse Trials finally got underway today, and we couldn’t be more excited.
The Horse Trials are particularly special to us this year – not only are we thrilled to be back following the challenges of the last few years, but we are also celebrating the Castle’s 950th Anniversary!
