What a fantastic day it’s been. The riders and horses have been as striking as the sun today, resulting in a rewarding day with lots of great sport. Lots of water for both humans and horses keeps everybody on top – and an occasional carrot perhaps to the horses!
The Strzegom team is putting its last touch on the XC course to make sure everything is perfect for Friday’s first class. The XC has been open to walk since Wednesday and surely it has some challenges cut out for our horses and riders. The XC course is now available on our website with full overview of the courses and pictures of all the fences. http://www.strzegomhorsetrials.pl/pl/cross-country-trasa-crossu.html
You can also find a short interview with Ground Jury Member Angela Tucker and hear her thoughts on this year’s 3* course. On our website you will find more interviews with our riders. Andreas Dibowski, Linda Algotsson, Michael Jung, Niklas Linbäck, Jacek Gałczyński are some of the riders who have joined us for short brief on their hopes and expectations of this year’s edition of Strzegom Horse Trials.

Thursday has been all about Dressage and Show jumping, which has kept all arenas busy with lots of action.
The beautiful main arena started off hosting the Dressage for CI 2*. To say the least, with some 76 competitors, we had a very powerful starting field to guarantee a most interesting competition.
We have also had the pleasure to follow the CI 1* in both Dressage and Show Jumping, the CI 1* J show jumping and starting the rest of our classes. With 349 horses and 215 riders form 20 different nations, we have a lot of great entertainment ahead of us.

To make sure our visitors have a great experience, we have made sure we have a family friendly food court next to the main arena with lots of different choices. And what would an event be without the possibilities for shopping, so please visit our fair next to the food court.
Thursday night will be all about getting ready for the first fun day of XC and we hope you will join us here in Strzegom or that you can follow us via the Strzegom TV or FEI TV! http://www.strzegomhorsetrials.pl/pl/galeria/strzegom-tv.html
