Trailblazers is an organisation developed for the enthusiastic rider and sponsored by South Essex Insurance Brokers with media coverage in Horse Magazine. It is a competition structure suitable for the true amateur/recreational rider with four levels of show jumping competitions over heights of .75M / .85M / .95M and 1.05M and three levels of dressage comprising of Preliminary, Novice and Elementary. These competitions are split into Senior and Junior sections and run over two rounds, culminating in a Final.
Approved Trailblazers Centres – promoting the Trailblazer concept, run the first two rounds of the competition. The centres run first round competitions regularly followed by one second round competition at each venue.
The second rounds will run from 4th March, 2007 to 20th May, 2007. In dressage this series there will be 5 to qualify and show jumping there will be 4 to qualify for the Grand Final which will be held at Stoneleigh Park (formerly Royal Show Ground) 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th August, 2007.
Juniors have not to have attained their 17th birthday by the 1st day of the National Championships.
Qualification for dressage second rounds will be on class percentage, with all tests at 58% and over gaining qualification at that level. Qualification for show jumping second rounds will consist of a double clear in a height class and will entitle that rider and horse/pony to compete in any number of qualifying second rounds at that height class.
In the event of a partnership ceasing the qualification ceases.
Once a competitor has qualified they will be issued with an envelope containing a congratulatory letter telling them that they have qualified. The competitor will then have the choice to either take up the qualification or not. Should the competitor choose to accept the qualification for the second rounds, he/she will return the congratulatory letter (within 14 days) to the Centre where you qualified, together with a cheque for £12.00, made payable to the Centre of Qualification and with TWO stamped addressed envelopes. One will be used to return a Qualification Card; the other will be used to forward details of the second rounds.
