Since the inaugural Eventing Spring Carnival, which launched in 2022 in the north of England and took up Belton’s mantel as the international season opener, it’s been an event that’s had its work cut out for it in a major way. There’s been plenty of positives; from the word go, for example, its CCI4*-S courses, designed by event director Stuart Buntine, were heralded as being a more suitable, technical, and up-to-height challenge ahead of the spring’s five-stars.

“You wouldn’t necessarily look at this and think it’s frangible, would you?” asks Stuart Buntine, director of event organisation company BEDE Events. He’s gesturing to a wide, particularly solid-looking table, which will be placed out on course for next week’s Thoresby Spring Carnival of Eventing, BEDE’s crown jewel event.

I’m 33 years old – old enough, now, that every time I need to make a strong declaration that starts with my age, I have to turn to my partner and ask, ‘am I still 32 or have I had a birthday?’, so that’s something to look forward to, kids. Anyway, what was I saying? Ah, yes, this: that I am 33 years old, or maybe 32, I can’t remember, and regardless, my Christmas list looks exactly the same as it did when I was 4, or when I was 15, or when I was 26.

“I’ve worked my whole life to even get to 5*, and it’s taken me until this year to finally get a horse to get here,” says 34-year-old Caroline Harris, her eyes brimming with tears as she stands still in the eye of the storm, moments after jumping the clear round that secured her the Les 5 Etoiles de Pau victory with D.Day.

There’s no point in mincing our words: yesterday’s cross-country day at Les 5 Etoiles de Pau, the final CCI5* of 2024, was rough. It went on for hours and soggy hours; the whole course, which was ten fences shorter than expected and lost over two minutes of time as a result, felt like one big water jump. To pass from one fence to the next on foot, you’d simply have to accept that the sluice of sadness would make its way, en masse, from the floor and into your socks.
