AM7 - Clear round to be followed by imediate jump off round.
A2 - one round against the clock.
Superphase - one round against the clock in 2 phases.
Top Score - 60 seconds to jump as many jumps as possible. May jump each jump twice from any direction. Each jump is worth the value of its number. Highest score wins. No points awarded if a rail taken at a jump. This is a novelty event.

Our Casual Show Jumping and Dressage Day always achieves a high turnout and the Club has received a lot of positive feedback in regard to the encouraging and positive atmosphere, quality of the judges and outstanding organisation of this event.
We offer Show Jump rounds starting from ground poles up to 80cm and Dressage tests starting from prep through to preliminary, novice and elementary.

Our Total Wimps ODE has become an open competition due to the tremendous amount of interest being shown by other clubs and non-members in the area. This “competition” is such a great day out and caters for true total wimps (poles on the ground) to the real eventing dare devils (these people might canter). These events are now held at Equestrian Park.
