Our Courses Follow Classic Design Principles: Now you can compete in a horse trials without the pressure of making time or jumping "big" fences. Briar Fox Farm is offering a Starter Division at all 4 of our horse trials in 2010. The Starter Division allows the horse and/or the rider to get their "feet wet". Hopefully, the horse and rider will go away thinking: "Hey, this is pretty cool. Think I'll move up next time".
The horse/rider will compete in the same phases as the other riders; Dressage, Cross Country and Stadium. The dressage test for the Starter Division will be the USDF Intro Test B (Walk-trot). The Cross Country test concentrates on steering questions with obstacles that can be trotted or even walked over. The Stadium course is a mini-course consisting of cross-bars that can be trotted.
The Starter Division is intended to give the rider and/or the horse the opportunity to "Experience Eventing and Build Confidence". Come be a part of our horse trials. Take advantage of the beautiful landscape. Enjoy the absolutely competitor-friendly atmosphere. You will be glad you did. Who knows, you may be going Prelim in a few years.
