It wasn’t all plain sailing at Bramham Horse Trials this weekend (11-14 June) for the eventers who headed north for the Yorkshire event. While 27-year-old Flora Harris and Bayano stormed to victory in the CCI3*, others had a few stickier moments and a number of photographers were well-positioned to catch the action… We bring you the You’ve Been Framed moments of Bramham 2015.

Sit tight! Pippa Funnell and the 16.1hh, nine-year-old Sandman 7 survive a hairy moment in the showjumping, but they make an impressive recovery to go clear around the rest of the course and finish in sixth place.
