News from the Bates International Three Day Event and Sydney Eventing

Our favorite eventing coach Sharmayne Spencer has given us all a few much needed Three Day Event Tips so just incase your not sure of the best way to approach 4 days of full on competitive riding we thought we would summarise.

Did you know…

  • You need your EFA papers for the vet check?
  • You can meet the ground jury and get all those questions answered at your Briefing
  • You have to look good (shake it!) at the vet check
  • Horses get bored being in a stable all event so make sure you let yours out for grass as often as possible
  • You must have a bridle number for dressage
  • Getting around a cross country course is HARD - make sure you know where your going!
  • Get your pit crew prepped (mum? dad?) so by the time you come of the XC course they are ready with water and sweat scraper so you can get that fighting fit filly back down to an acceptable temperature
  • Gear should be all clean and horses well rested by the final day so you and your steed can jump a clear round of showjumping fences

Sharmayne wishes all riders the best of luck and offers her support as do we!
