Horse Events, July 13-17, 2011

It's a fairly quiet weekend in terms of horse activities, but of course the biggie is the Stuart Horse Trials in Victor, NY.  This is a great opportunity to participate in or watch an FEI rated competition that includes both local and international equestrians.  

Have a great weekend!

Townline and Murray Rd Victor, NY
Stuart Horse Trials started out in 1990 as a very nice local event where about 70 novice and training level riders competed. While it remains the highlight of local competitors' event schedules, the trials now draws top international level riders and their horses who compete at the preliminary and intermediate levels and in the international CIC* and CIC** competitions. The 300 competitors come from all over the United States and many foreign countries including Australia, Canada, Finland, Germany, Hungary, India, and Mexico and are cheered on by more than 18,000 spectators.
