There is new wording to define who may compete in divisions split by Rider or Horse. The rule change is listed in Appendix 3 of the USEA Eventing Rules for 2012.
The full rules are shown here. Be sure you have entered divisions for which you are eligible.
4.5 RIDER (R) - Open to competitors who have not completed an event above the next highest
level in the 5 years preceding the date of the competition, e.g. a Novice Rider may have
completed an event at Training level, but not Preliminary level or higher in the 5 years preceding
the date of the competition; a Training Rider may have completed an event at Preliminary
level, but not Intermediate level or higher in the 5 years preceding the date of the competition.
4.6 HORSE (H) - Open to competitors of any age, horse may not have completed an event
above the next highest level. e.g. a Novice Horse may have completed an event at Training
level, but not Preliminary level or higher; a Training Horse may have completed an event at
Preliminary level, but not Intermediate level or higher.
4.7 For the purposes of this rule, FEI divisions are considered to be one level higher than the equivalent National division, e.g. FEI One-Star is one level higher than a Preliminary Horse Trials.
A rider who has completed an event at the Advanced Level is not eligible to compete as an
Intermediate rider. BOD 1/23/11 Effective 12/1/11

We know that many of you have been hampered by the extreme heat and hard ground and finally have a chance to prepare now that the weather has improved. We have plenty of room for entries so we are still accepting entries.
Any entry RECEIVED by Aug 26 will be accepted, and a Late Fee of $25 should be added to your total. See you soon! 3 comments | Read comments

Don't forget the new Classic Three Day Incentive Program at the Hagyard Midsouth 3Day & Team Challenge HT!
Hagyard Midsouth 3Day & Team Challenge HT is delighted to offer a new Incentive for our Classic (Long Format) riders. Beginning in 2011, each Training 3Day competitor who completes the event will be offered a Classic Format Voucher, which will entitle the rider or the horse the opportunity to compete at the Classic Preliminary level at a reduced cost. The voucher will provide a $75 discount for a qualified entry for either the same rider or the same horse in the Prelim 3Day [P3D] division at the 2012 or 2013 Hagyard Midsouth Three Day.
We hope this incentive will provide support to our riders as they progress in their development as Classic Eventers. We look forward to many more graduates in our two-part program of Three Day competitions! 0 comments | Post comment
Check out our slideshow of the courses. We all need to thank Rick Bailen, our announcer, for schlepping around taking photos in this heat! Flowers to follow closer to XC day.... :-)
If you want to watch a second time, simpler to refresh your browser window than to click the replay arrow. Either works!
Stephen Bradley Clinic Jun 18-19 at Flying Cross Farm in Skylight, KY has been cancelled due to low entries. We apologize for the change in your schedule, and hope to offer clinics at some other date. 2 comments | Read comments
