Applewood offers six ESDCTA-registered Dressage Shows, Combined Tests (dressage and show jumping) & Clear Round jumping. Trophy and six ribbons per class. Dressage is in the outdoor dressage arena; warm-up is indoors; both arenas are sand/rubber and dust-free! Jumping takes place in the grass show jumping field. Scores can be applied to ESDCTA Year-End Awards and volunteer hours to ESDCTA volunteer requirement. All shows are on Wednesday. We make every effort to schedule ride times around riders’ work responsibilities and other commitments.
Interested in Eventing? Thinking of moving up a level? Then try our Mini Event – it’s fun, inviting and exciting! The mini event consists of a dressage test appropriate for the level, and a jumping phase that starts with five stadium-type jumps in an open grass field flowing into a short cross country course. The cross country obstacles are level appropriate, and can include logs, stone walls, mounds, tables, a water complex, ditches, banks, and various others.
Levels include:
Scores for the Dressage phase and Jumping phase are combined, and a Trophy and 6 ribbons are awarded in each division. In addition, there are two special awards: Best Amateur Horse and Best Amateur Rider. Or, just ride a dressage test or just ride through the jumping course.
Dressage Test of Choice: Select any USEF or USEA test, 8-10 minutes per test to allow for judge’s comments. (Note: not ESDCTA recognized.)
YEH (Young Event Horse) includes the YEH dressage test for either 4 or 5 year old eventing prospects, and a jumping phase that begins with five straightforward show jumps, which feed directly into several inviting XC fences.
