ACTEW AGL Show jumping Cup

The stunning Equestrian park in the heart of the nation’s capital has been watered, aerated and mown for the upcoming ACTSJC club feature event the ACTEWAGL Canberra Cup. Over 250 horses and 160 quick thinking riders will tackle challenging jumping courses designed by Brad Longhurst, Greg Vella and Anthony Hassel. Established partnerships that are quick, careful and accurate will have the edge and are sure to entertain spectators over the weekend of show jumping in the capital. Where age is no barrier for man or beast and often carries an advantage, we will see seasoned campaigners pitted against feisty brave young guns hungry for a win. In form local cup riders Clint Beresford, Jamie Grant, Jess Spence and Grant Hughes will have locals cheering and give interstate competitors some tough competition.

Action at the ACTSJC show jumping meet starts each day at 8am with three rings sponsored by Horseland, Horsezone, and Barastoc, and the entertaining 6 bar challenge will thrill the crowd. The  feature class the ACTEWAGL cup, where fences will start at 1.40m and will include an open water jump is on Sunday Nov 9th.
