Event Overview

An exciting addition to the calendar for Kelsall Hill Equestrian Centre, providing the opportunity for our grass root riders to participate in an unaffiliated one-day event. Our centre has been enhanced with a significant new investment to create a world class new centre and facilities. Our site is easily accessible and parking is plentiful. You will find our service very friendly and our staff completely committed to making your time with us as enjoyable as possible.

The Dressage phase will take place in the Lake View Arena (110m x 70m) with the warm up taking place in the Lake Side Arena (60m x 50m). Both arenas are surfaced providing good footing within all weather conditions.

The Show Jumping phase will take place in the Grandstand Indoor Arena (72m x 45m) and warming up in the Primrose Indoor Arena (60m x 30m). The course will be built and designed by BS course builder Gilly Milner using our bright and bold competition fences.

The XC courses will be built and designed by Dominic Lawrence. All courses will include a water complex and benefit from well-built fences and the use of the undulating ground. The going is usually good due to the sandy soil, but ground care will be carried out if necessary.
