Dressage

Holt Farm holds regular unaffiliated dressage shows throughout the year, culminating in Champion's Weekend at the end of the Summer season, and a one day Championship Show at the end of the Winter season.

A trophy is awarded to the winner of each class, prize plaques for the 2nd and 3rd placed and rosettes are awarded 1st to 10th place. All competitors placed are eligible for the Championship for that class at the end of the season.

All tests are ridden in an enclosed rubber arena, and warm up is in a large enclosed grass arena. The show atmosphere is always calm and relaxed and so is suitable for the nervous or novice horse or rider.

You may enter by post, phone, text or email, if you have entered by phone, text or email you must either post cheque payment to the Show Secretary, drop cash or cheque payment into the letterbox on Holt Farm's gates, or put cash into or do a bank transfer into HSBC bank account 'Holt Farm Shows' account number 72144867 sort code 40-31-06 quoting your name as a reference to arrive before the show. Entries not paid for before the show will not be accepted.
