Showing Championships will now take place in the Grand Ring at Stoneleigh Park, which used to be the main arena for the Royal Show. We feel that this provides the championship experience deserved by the showing competitors. The working hunter championships will take place in a bigger arena than last year with the courses designed by the course designer for the working hunter at the Royal International Show and Dublin Horse Show. Kevin Millman is looking forward to being involved with the Trailblazers Championships, meeting the competitors and designing a friendly and interesting course for all the various levels at the championships.
Combined training competitors will have the option to use the show jumping classes on Thursday 23 July as a warm up if they wish prior to their championship competitions on the Friday and Saturday. The dressage will take place in the Grand Ring, while the jumping will be in the main championship arena as previous years.
Master Class in the Park!At the end of a day’s competition bring your seat, maybe grab a drink or something to eat and sit back and enjoy a master class by a experts in the sports of dressage or show jumping. This will be free to everyone attending the championships.
We are delighted to announce that Adam Kemp, top international trainer will present the dressage master class on Friday evening 17 July. Meanwhile, Geoff Billington will present the show jumping master class on the Friday 24 July in his own inevitable style!
