What: The London leg of the Longines Global Champions Tour
Where: Syon Park, London
Why you care: Do you know what beauty is? Have you eyes? Ok, but on a more serious note. Lovely atmosphere, world class talent, riding kind and confident tracks. Very clean and chic. Footing looked fantastic. First rate vendors. Absolutely top Americano at the coffee stand and Pimms available by the jug, which is, of course, our favourite serving size.
KEY ATTENDANCE INFORMATION: See infographic, and then photos below, for more on the biblical curse that is London weather.
