Driving at Royal Windsor

[mayangold]

Can anyone tell me how much of the Driving action can be seen at the Royal Winsdor horse show. I've been to the show before but not on a driving day. Is it worth it?

edited to say- im asking so early as im planning work holiday!

I was competing there a couple of years ago and took a bit of a wrong turn whilst exercising my horse (only me!) and ended up at the side of the driving (it's a good job my ex racer is unflappable!) but from doing this it looked like the public got really good access to lots of the driving taking place around the park.

yes- you can walk round the marathon, and the section with the hazards and water is very near the bottom arena

I used to work with driving horses when FEI first started- still love it though my old boss would be dismayed by the attire of driver/grooms, and style of driving now!
