Welcome back to the second of our Talk Horse summer specials.

Recorded live at Hickstead on the morning of Derby Day, this episode takes you right to the beating heart of British showjumping. We’re joined by Lizzie Bunn, Show Director of the Al Shira’aa Hickstead Derby Meeting and Managing Director of the All England Jumping Course, for a rare and revealing conversation.

From the eye-watering sums paid for top international horses, to the complicated history of the Bunn family, Lizzie lifts the lid on what really goes into keeping this world-famous showground galloping. We talk about the intense build-up to Derby Day, the pressure, the pageantry and the fun behind the scenes.

She’s also best friends with Pippa Funnell… So expect some fishy tails from their long friendship. It’s emotional, funny, and full of the kind of insider detail only Lizzie can share.

A must-listen for anyone who’s ever dreamed of clearing the Derby Bank or just wondered what it takes to run the most iconic arena in the country.

We LOVE hearing from you.
