The Ssangyong Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials will take place from Thu 13th Sep – Sun 16th Sep, with the CCI3* and CIC3* for 8 & 9 year old horses being the feature classes.

Australian eventer Amanda Ross is set to take part in the CCI3* class with her World Equestrian Games reserve listed horse, Koko Popping Candy. The pair narrowly missed out on a start at WEG start, but will no doubt be looking forward to starting in this high-profile UK event. The CCI3* currently lists more than 100 combinations on the entry list and includes some of the world’s top riders who aren’t competing at WEG, including world number one Oliver Townend.

Australia will also be represented in the CIC3* for 8 & 9 year old horses by Sammi Birch and The Kincooley Ceili. This class has nearly 100 entries and sure to be hotly contested.
