Visit to see SANTINI as he starts a new career in eventing with multi-medallist William Fox-Pitt. William has won an unprecedented 14 CCI****'s and 59 CCI three-day events. His achievements in the sport make him one of the most successful British event riders of all time.
SANTINI is a former top race horse winning £490,388 in prize money. Formally trained by Nicky Henderson, for whom Santini completed second within the 2020 Cheltenham Gold Cup. He was latterly within the care of Polly Gundry, second in the Grade Two Cotswold Chase in 2022 and fourth in the 2022 Grand Nationwide, each under jockey Nick Scholfield.
Transitioning to his new job of eventing, former world No 1, William Fox-Pitt says; “It’s a novelty to have a star on the yard – he has so many followers,” stated William. “He’s very particular.”
Born in 1969 William started eventing at the age of 15. Encouraged by his parents, both of whom completed Badminton and Burghley, he represented Britain throughout his teens, winning Young Rider Team Gold medals in successive European Championships in 1988 and 1989 and completing Badminton himself at the age of 20. His first Burghley win five years later established him as a regular on the senior British Team.
William was the first British rider to become eventing’s World No 1, a distinction he achieved in 2002, 2009, 2010 and again in 2014. He has represented his country consistently over the past 24 years, including 5 Olympic games - winning team Silver at Athens and the 2012 London Olympics. He has won seven team Gold medals at the European Championships and has been the British No 1 eleven times.
In 2011 William became the first rider to win a record six Burghley titles (on six different horses) and became one of the first riders to ever win a CCI*, CCI** and CCI*** at the same event on the same day - a feat achieved at Tattersalls, Ireland.
William has won an unprecedented 14 CCI****'s and 59 CCI three-day events. His achievements in the sport make him one of the most successful British event riders of all time.
