Bramham International Horse Trials
Thursday 9th - Sunday 12th June
For many people, the sport of Horse Trials – or to use its modern title, Eventing, presents the ultimate challenge of horsemanship because it requires horse and rider to perform three totally different activities within the same competition: dressage, cross country and show jumping. To conquer one or even two is not enough to win, so as the competition develops, so does the pressure. It takes at least four years of training to prepare a horse for an event of Bramham’s level, and the difference between success and failure can be a very fine line.
International events are graded according to their level of difficulty: the lowest international level is a one star, and the scale goes up as far as four star which is the very highest level (Badminton, Burghley, Kentucky etc.). Bramham is classified as a three star, and is known to be one of the best, and most demanding three star events in the world.
