Location
The events will take place at Richmond Equestrian Centre. Postcode: DL10 7PL.
Grid reference SE 20 89 69. What3Words: sway.similar.deposits.
Please follow the large brown tourism signs to Richmond Equestrian Centre once you have left the A1. DO NOT follow Sat Navs as these will take you over a very small, very narrow, uncrossable bridge!
Dressage: Takes place in a quiet area away from both the Showjumping and Cross Country phases. Dressage is ran on a flat, highly maintained grassland area and is very efficiently organised. There is a very large warm up area as well as a separate designated lunging area.
Showjumping: Takes place on a superb, highly maintained all weather surface with excellent warm up facilities and fences (indoor and outdoor warm up arenas are available). Showjumping is a 5-10 minute walk from the wagon park area and is ran very professionally and efficiently.
NB: For Health & Safety reasons, Studs must be removed for Showjumping
Cross Country: All courses are all inviting and flowing, to help educate and encourage both horse and rider. The tracks make use of the excellent terrain and ground at Richmond (now famous for its golf course stripes), which is exceptionally well maintained.
