Month: November 2021

The Hodgemoor Riding Association, in cooperation with local yards, presents a fund-raising series of seven dressage events for adult and younger riders hacking to the events.

Sunday 19^th December at Manor Farm (Fancy dress awards) – see results on this web site

Sunday 20^th February at Austens Farm.

Sunday 6^th March at Oldefields

Sunday 13^th March at Grove Farm

Sunday 27^th March at Highclere

Sunday 24^th April at Widmer Equestrian

You can enter any of the first three events from today 13 November up to four days before each event using the entry form linked here:

Entry form in MS Word which you can fill out and return by email, or

Entry form in pdf which you can print out and return by post

The entry form states “All competitors must hack to the event, i.e. it’s a series for riders local to Hodgemoor. Horsebox or trailer parking is not provided as most of the yards do not have winter facilities.” Your committee was keen to provide events in winter when there are few others, even though members whose yard is too far away might not be able to compete… if you are one of these, we offer you our commiserations and remind you that Riding Out With Hodgemoor (see Facebook for dates) and the Hodgemoor Le Trec (Easter Monday) are available to box to.

The Hodgemoor Winter Dressage Series permits the some relaxation of rules on attire because of hacking to the event(s), winter weather and the equipment available to new young riders. Safety equipment like helmets must be conform to British Dressage security standards. Please read our pdf note at hodgemoor_attire_winter_dressage
