Top riders from the equestrian world gathered in Tattenhall over the Jubilee weekend for the annual Bolesworth Classic.

Set in the beautiful grounds of Bolesworth Castle, home of the Barbour family, the Classic is a prestigious annual event featuring a major equestrian competition and all-round entertainment.

Now in its fifth year, the show has grown from strength to strength, and once again attracted many of the UK’s top horses and riders, including prospective members of the Great Britain Olympic Team.

This year the show marked the Queen’s Jubilee in style with an array of British attractions and family celebrations including helicopter flights over the showground.
