On Saturday of the event, Scone Palace International Horse Trials will host Arena Eventing classes - for which the competitors have to qualify - at 80cm, 90cm and 1metre level.
Arena Eventing involves just the showjumping and cross-country elements of the sport of eventing - there is no dressage phase. There will be approximately 18 obstacles to jump, of which the first six will be coloured showjumps and the remaining 12 rustic cross-country-type fences. The showjumping element attracts penalties for knocking poles down and for refusals, while the cross-country part is judged on an optimum time.
Limited stabling will be available onsite. Competitors will only be able to book a stable for the night before or after the day they compete. There will be the opportunity when booking stables to request additional nights. If there is space these will be allocated once entries close.
Featuring a variety of disciplines and world class riders, spectators can expect four thrilling days of world-class sporting action.
