A Cup of Tea with Elizabeth Barratt

Kentucky, national titles, and a horse called Piglet.

Nicole Brown sits down with one of Britain's brightest young riders, Elizabeth Barratt, to talk about a whirlwind start to 2026, from flying horses to America for the first time to defending her Young Rider National title at Bicton.

Elizabeth reflects on the scale of the Kentucky experience, learning alongside Europe's top five-star riders, and why the trip left her hungry to come back one day for the five-star itself. Plus, she looks ahead to Bicton with two very different rides, the experienced Rehy DJ and exciting young talent Postman.

There's also talk of Young Rider Europeans ambitions, future four-stars, and the young horses listeners should keep firmly on their radar this season.

Highlights:

Behind the scenes of travelling horses to Kentucky
What it was really like competing at the Kentucky Horse Park
Defending the Young Rider National title at Bicton
Why Postman could be one for the future
The horse Elizabeth says listeners need to watch, Camillo Boy
Tack cleaning, hot chocolates, and a late-night Baileys recommendation

Guests:

Elizabeth Barratt, reigning U21 National Champion and rising British event rider
