NZCT Trans Tasman Young Rider Challenge and South Island Three Day Event

The NZCT Trans Tasman Young Rider Challenge and South Island Three Day Event will be held at the Sheds NZ National Equestrian Centre at McLean’s Island, Christchurch from 23 to 25 April 2010.

The Trans Tasman Young Rider Challenge has been held bi-annually since 1996 (Previous Results) but this is the first year the event has been held in Christchurch.  The Challenge sees the best New Zealand young riders take on the top young riders in Australia in a CCI2* competition.  It will be run as part of the annual South Island Three Day Event, which will act as a vital qualifier for the National Three Day event at Taupo in May.  As well as the CCI2* competition (incorporating the Trans Tasman Challenge), the event is planned to run CIC3*, CCI1*, Pre Novice, Training and Pre Training classes, and the South Island Young Event Horse Championship.
