There is also an open 80cm for individuals only

COMPETITION RULES

The show jumping will be run under Show Jumping rules set out in section SJ1 page 54 in the BRC 2021 handbook.

Riders jump two rounds. Riders will jump the first round and then a second round. The second round will be in two parts, the first part of the course will be the second round, followed by the second part of the course which will be classed as the jump-off. All competitors will go straight onto the jump-off without stopping. All team and individual members will go forward to the second part of the second round (jump-off) unless eliminated.

The first-round score and the second-round score will be combined to gain the total score. The jump-off section will only be used where there are ties for equality.

The second round will be scored as two parts, so for example a rider who goes clear in the first part, then accrues four faults in the second part (jump-off) will be placed above a rider who accrued four faults in the first part, regardless of times or faults recorded in the second part of the round.

More information on eligibility can be found in the BRC Handbook 2021 page 101.

Entry fee is: £16 per person or £64 for a team.
