Over in the Thomas Family London Arena, the entertainment starts at 8am with two rounds of the Royal Kennel Club small/mixi pairs dog agility, supported by Agria Pet Insurance.
Then the action switches to horses with the Rising Star small and lightweight hunter, followed by the middleweights and heavyweights coming before the judges.
Never miss out on the latest happenings in the equestrian world
Dressage will take centre stage as Olympian Richard Davison will be joined by fellow legend Carl Hester to deliver his hugely popular masterclass, which will focus on “developing collection”.
The riders will be multiple regional and national dressage championship winner, Dannie Morgan and Sarah Higgins, who has also enjoyed considerable national success. Dannie will be riding the very exciting rising star Fever Tree. Currently ranked world number two on the FEI 1* ranking list for horses, Fever Tree is a horse with huge potential. Sarah's ride is to be confirmed.
Returning to showing, it will be time for the Rising Star of Hunter Type Championship, followed by the Rising Star Working Hunter Type and Working Show Horse, both supported by Phil Swallow – and their championship.
To bring the evening to a close is the new national classes for seven-year-old dressage horses and grand prix horses of the future, before the action wraps up at 8pm.
