Qualifications Events
BCA – 10 – 11th June
Catton Park – 17 – 18th June
Brightling Park – 1 – 2nd July
Buckminster Park – 8 – 9th July
Richmond – 14 – 15th July
Shelford Manor (2) – 26 – 28th August
The eventual winner will be crowned at the conclusion of the Osberton CCI2*L and will ride away with a brand-new Arena Saddle of their choice.
Five Novice sections are being contested this weekend at BCA, as well as BE100, BE90 and GO BE classes, with the ‘two Cooks’ – Tina and daughter Isabelle - competing against each other in the Novice Section A but it is in the Open Novice U18 where there are some very well-known names.
The names however belong to the four-legged partners with Tom McEwen’s past 5* ride Figaro Van Het Broekxhof, Nicola Wilson’s Ngong Hills, Tom Crisp’s Vendome Biats and Austin O’Connor’s Kilpatrick Knight all enjoying their later lives with young riders and having a run this weekend.
We’re filming all competitors on cross country and don't forget to follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for video snippets and more!
