Former four-star winner and European medallist among latest Burghley withdrawals

Australia’s Paul Tapner has withdrawn Bonza King Of Rouges from next week’s Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials (30 August-2 September).

“He’s got an injury that means he can’t compete at Burghley,” says Paul, who hopes to be back out on the horse next season with Badminton as the aim in May.

Paul won Badminton in 2010 riding Inonothing and finished 19th at Burghley last year on Bonza King Of Rouges, a 15-year-old who belongs to his rider, Jenny Waaler and Angela Scott.
