@Caterpii At a smaller horse trials like this one, rider and horse complete all three phases (dresssage, show jumping, cross country) in one day. At larger and more intense competitions it's spread out over three days. The obstacles for US preliminary level horse trials are: X-C fences 3 ft 7 in (1.09 m), 24–28 efforts, ditch 9 ft 2 in (2.79 m), drops 5 ft 3 in (1.60 m), optimum speed 520 m/min; and Stadium fences 3 ft 7 in (1.09 m), 11–13 efforts.

I am so devastated that Hickstead will never be competing again.. He was going to the 2012 Olympics:(

@JumperPony166 We're all shocked at the loss.

I wish! I heard all the tickets have been sold already by internet raffle of sorts.

Will you be going to the 2012 London Olympic Games to film? If you are that would be absolutely fantastic!
