About Brigstock Horse Trials at Rockingham Castle

Set on a hill overlooking five counties, Rockingham Castle was built by William the Conqueror. The castle was a royal residence for 450 years. In the 16th century, Henry VIII granted it to Edward Watson and for 450 years it has remained a family home.

Horse & Hound readers are invited to design a cross-country fence for the Brigstock Horse Trials 2013. The fence will become the Horse & Hound fence on the cross-country course. Entrants are encouraged to use Horse & Hound and Rockingham Castle as inspiration for the fence, although this is not compulsory, with the main aim being to create a memorable and exciting fence for rider and spectator alike. The drawing can be anything from a simple sketch through to a full drawing. Creativity and imagination will catch the eye of the judges.

The course builder reserves the right to adjust/amend the design to ensure the fence is safe. Competition details form part of these terms and conditions. Entry is open to residents of the UK, except employees (and their families) of IPC Media, its printers and agents, the suppliers of the prizes and any other companies associated with the competitions. The entrant(s) must be aged 13 or over. Proof of identity and age may be required. Use of a false name or address will result in disqualification. All entries must be made directly by the person entering the competition. Entries made online using methods generated by a script, macro or the use of automated devices will be void.
