First Classic Three-Day Event of 2011: Heart of the Carolinas
Long Live the Long Format at Southern Eighths Farm, located in the middle of USEA Areas II & III on the North and South Carolina border in Chesterfield, SC, the Heart of the Carolinas Long Format Three-Day is the amateur rider’s “Rolex”. The place where Beginner Novice through Training level riders can ride their ultimate long format test in a recognized event. It is unlike any other horse trial.
The facility is designed to accommodate and maximize the long format experience. From its centrally located “holds” and “starts”, two steeplechase tracks and groomed “roads and tracks” to the special derby course used for show jumping, the Heart of the Carolinas event is the ultimate test. Whether it is testing your horse at speed on the Steeplechase or riding technically challenging cross country courses, this event will be memorable.
This is the opportunity of a life time for the amateur rider, the time where you, your horse and your support team all function as one to complete the traditional test of horsemanship. That moment where education and exhilaration meet.
To sign up for this great opportunity to participate in a rare USEA Recognized Training Three-Day, Novice Three-Day, and Beginner Novice Three-Day Long Format Event contact Foy Barksdale at (203) 605-5303 or email [email protected]
