Hurrah
for the Brits! Imagine William Fox-Pitt and Mary King BOTH putting two horses
in the top four in a CCI****! I
venture to say we will NEVER see results like this again in a CCI****.
Williams'
win with Tamarillo was Tamarillo's second win, having previously won Burghley
in 2004. It was Williams fifth Burghley win equalling the record of Mark Todd
(NZL) and Ginny Leng (GBR) each of whom also won Burghley five times. The
