pipestave hill horse trials series

What is the Pipestave Horse Trial Series?
It is a series of low-level unrated combined training events with all thrree phases (dressage, cross-country and stadium jumping) taking place in one day. The purpose of eventing is to test the skills and talents of horses and riders in three different disciplines. Our courses are inviting and friendly and are intended for riders and/or horses entering the world of eventing. We offer year-end awards and lots of fun competition. The series is completely run and staffed by volunteers.

Each level will be divided by Junior and Senior, if entries warrant, and there may be more than one section of each level depending on the number of entries in each level. A horse may compete only once at each horse trial. Riders may enter more than one horse IF the event has not filled by the closing date. See entry form for details of entering more than one horse per rider. Sorry, no dressage only rides. Cost: $80.00 per entry (separate checks for each entry, please)
