This ever-popular event will see some of Australia’s top riders compete. In the CIC3*, Olympians Amanda Ross (riding Koko Popping Candy) and Megan Jones (riding Kirby Park Impress) are set to compete, alongside nine other top-level combinations. The CIC2* and CIC1* star classes will feature a mix of up and coming young riders, young horses and also more experienced combinations looking to ease their way into the 2018 eventing season. As always, the CIC1* will be hotly contested, with more than 40 combinations entered!
