2026 Blenheim Preview Show

Two four-star classes, some serious names and plenty of decisions to make as we head to Blenheim. Nicole, Diarm and Sam preview both the CCI4*-L and the eight and nine-year-old CCI4*-S, digging into the favourites, the form and the combinations they think could make their mark this week. Brookfield Quality heads the Prediction Centre in the four-star long, but with Jesse Campbell, Oliver Barrett, Gemma Stevens and plenty more in the mix, there is a lot to consider. Then it's onto the future stars of the eight and nine-year-old class, a division with a pretty impressive record of producing horses we hear a lot more from. And, of course, they're building their Eventing Manager teams along the way. Highlights Why Tom McEwen and Brookfield Quality set such a high standard in the CCI4*-L The riders and horses who could challenge at the top Where the Eventing Manager value might be hiding Gemma Stevens looking to continue a brilliant run of form Oliver Townend and an intriguing catch ride The young horses to know in the eight and nine-year-old class Who makes the team when £10 million suddenly doesn't feel like very much A few under-the-radar combinations worth keeping an eye on This episode is brought to you in partnership with Connolly's RED MILLS.
