Horse & Hound Editor-in-Chief Sarah Jenkins said: “We’re happy to be able to open this event to at least a small number of our readers this year, for those who wish to come and support their friends and loved ones who have been nominated by the public and shortlisted for these prestigious awards.
“Those shortlisted have received a record amount of votes, and so we know there is really strong support for everyone at the top of their game who made the top four in each category. The event is always an enjoyable celebration, and it is great to be able to increase numbers a little this year to enable more supporters to watch their heroes being crowned in person.
“We really look forward to seeing some of you there.”
