Clare said,' I am absolutely delighted to have won the prize and look forward to coming to Burghley on Cross Country Day. It should be a real treat for myself and my daughter Frances, as we are both horse mad and have enjoyed coming to Burghley in the past as spectators'.

AR Events offers excellent packages across the 4 days at Burghley with the dates for the 2013 event being 5 - 8 September.
