The Queen's granddaughter is joining other leading riders at the prestigious horse trials set in the grounds of the country estate. Organisers are expecting to see crowds of spectators over the two days.

The 37-year-old, who has become a regular at the event, was a member of the two British teams that won silver at the 2014 World Equestrian Games and the 2012 London Olympic Games where she was 8th on her mount High Kingdom individually.

Also among the main attractions at Weston Park will be top riders Oliver Townend, William Fox-Pitt, Andrew Nicholson, Nicola Wilson and Izzy Taylor.
