Stable View has partnered with Fair Hill International and Plantation Field Horse Trials to offer an unprecedented award to top Young Riders competing during the 2017 spring competition season.
Beginning at the March 21st & 22nd Horse Trials, Stable View will kick off the 21 Challenge Series, Targeting Young Riders at the Preliminary and 1* level. Competitors will vie for the top cumulative results throughout the series which includes Fair Hill International April 14th – 16th, 2017 Horse Trials and Plantation Field May 13th, 2017 Horse Trials.
