KBIS adds the Festival of Youth to its extensive support for British Eventing (BE), which includes sponsorship of the British young rider team, young rider programme, the open novice under-18 qualifying series and championships and the national under-21 championships.

BE chief executive Mike Etherington-Smith said: “KBIS has been generous supporters of British eventing for a long time so we are extremely pleased to be able to offer Guy Prest and his team the opportunity to be associated with this showcase event for up and coming stars of the future.”

Weston Park International Horse Trials takes place from 4-7 October.

“We know and understand how hard these people work for the upkeep, well-being and long-term security of our countryside so have decided to give something back to them to honour their relentless, tireless and back breaking work,” said Carina Evans, director of Non Tip Feeder Ltd.

The Pure Feed Company is also offering a 25% discount on all their feeds to the participating UKRiders centres (10 bags limit).

Racing Post previously sponsored The Festival’s handicap chase over two miles and five furlongs (now known as the Byrne Group Plate) from when it was founded in 2006 through to 2008.

Bruce Millington, editor of the Racing Post, said: “Racing Post is thrilled to be returning to the Cheltenham Festival as a sponsor this year. We have been looking for the right opportunity and to be associated with as prestigious a race as the Arkle Chase seems very fitting.”

Sixteen combinations based across the US and Europe received grants to offset training costs in the run-up to the London Olympic Games.

The mirrors are made using 6mm Pilkington opti-mirror, to produce a high quality, crisp, accurate image.

Each mirror is safety backed and manufactured to British Standards. It also has an impact absorbing cushioner, framed in galvanised steel and, should the mirror get broken, it won’t shatter.

“A large number of riders visit us and everyone has been positive about the mirrors,” said David Kinsella of Beaver Hall. “One of our instructors, who has two horses, has found them invaluable for training, and we’ve found them great for clinics and when warming up at competitions.”
