Arena cross-country

Details: “Classes from clear round and 40cm to 1m. This is another of our events using cross-country fences in an arena. This is to be held in an indoor arena, but it could be in the outside arena if weather permits. The competition is open to both ponies and horses, both being judged separately and rosettes being awarded to both up to sixth place. The jumps used are not showjumps or working hunter fences. These are fences made to replicate fences you would expect to find on a cross-country course and most are a fixed height. This means that as we change the heights, we also change the fences.”
