Competitors will jump a course of 6-8 show jumps immediately followed by 8-10 simulated, knock-down cross country fences including a skinny and corner. The whole round will be timed and the winner will be the competitor with the lowest number of penalties. In the event of a tie the winner will be the one closest to the optimum time (Optimum time is calculated based on a speed of 350m per minute). Stop watches are NOT permitted.

You do NOT have to be a BE member to compete in any of the listed classes. Competitors who qualify for the Championships at Aintree will receive a Championships qualification email from the BE Office on receipt of the results at BE from the qualifying venues. Upon receipt of the qualification email competitors will have 14 days to become a member (minimum PAYG) of BE and horses registered with BE which is free, to retain their qualification. Failure to do this will result in the qualification being passed on.
