Make us your last stop before the AECs!
Kentucky Classique 2008 will be back at its usual venue at the Kentucky Horse Park, and will offer CIC**, CIC*, BN through Interm. Horse Trials, and Combined Tests at every level from BN to Advanced, using the same tests that will be ridden at the American Eventing Championships. Riders may compete in the Combined Tests even if not USEA members; a nonmember fee will be owed in this case. Also, riders in the Combined Tests do not pay the USEA Starter and Drug&Meds fees.
We will offer XC Schooling on Sunday following the competition. Stop at the office to pick up a schooling pinney and pay the $30 fee.
We are also delighted to announce that the Kentucky Horse Park has made extended stay stabling available to us so that we can offer layovers for riders who want to travel directly on to the AECs. Please join us!
Open Date for Entries: July 22!
All entries must be received by the secretary by Close, so don't miss out!
