At the Agria Blenheim Palace International Horse Trials, we are proud to support grassroots competitions through the evoke Eventer Challenge, helping to build the future stars of eventing.

This exciting derby-style competition is set to be a highlight of the season, with limited team spaces available in the 90cm class-early entry is strongly advised to avoid missing out. The 100cm class is open to individual competitors as well, though team entries will be given priority.

The evoke Eventer challenge, is a grassroots competition. Pony Club & Riding Club Teams all over the country are invited from to compete in either the 90cm or 100cm classes.

The evoke Eventer Challenge is a ‘Derby’ Style competition with a section of 8-10 show-jumps leading to 6-8 efforts over portable fixed Cross- Country Fences and finishing over a joker fence.
