Regional Finals
To be eligible to compete for Championship prizes at the Northern Regional Finals, a horse and rider combination must have achieved at least 62% at the level they wish to compete, in at at least 2 shows, and have competed at 2 shows in the Northern Region. The rider must have completed their 6 hours help BEFORE the Regional Finals.
The help list has been updated after each show and is located on the website: Help List Winter 2023/24
If there are any issues with the help hours noted, please contact the relevant show organiser. Entries submitted without full help completed will be registered as 'Non Qualified' for Championship classes.

Preliminary times will be posted on Wednesday/Thursday & finalised times available the Friday prior to show on website.
Non-Championship tests will also be run as an additional opportunity to obtain qualifying scores for the National Winter Finals. There is no guarantee that the allocated time for your Non-Championship test will be before the Championship test.
