Allerton Park Horse Trials 19th & 20th September 2026

WELCOME TO ALLERTON PARK Please enjoy a weekend of exciting sport in our historic parkland. Watch the harmony of horse and rider coming together in dressage. Then move on to our lively central arena with plenty of tradestands and food stalls to see some exciting rounds of show jumping. Leading you onto the ultimate challenge of eventing – the cross country with its’ courses taking you out across the open countryside to view horse and rider tackling a huge variety of obstacles at speed. We welcome dogs, but please be sure to always have them on a secure short lead to ensure the competitors safety and enable you to appreciate and respect this special environment and enjoy its’ wildlife. GRATEFUL THANKS The Allerton Park Horse Trials Committee is deeply indebted to the events’ sponsors, who enable us to maintain our cross-country course to a high standard. The committee is also most grateful to Nell Lady Mowbray for generously hosting the event within this beautiful setting. We wish to thank the family for making their estate and staff available to prepare the park and for the many years the horse trials has run. We are enormously indebted to our huge band of loyal volunteers – dressage and fence judges, timekeepers, stewards, tea-run, set up and take down volunteers and many more who so generously give their time freely throughout the year without whose help this event would be unable to run. We owe special thanks to our highly professional emergency teams of doctors and veterinary surgeons whose expertise and advice is totally invaluable. We are delighted to have been chosen as one of six events by the EHOA to sponsor owner/riders in the grassroots level. And finally, special thanks to the Estate staff for their work throughout the year and our grazier Simon Armstrong who looks after the pasture so well and is exceptionally tolerant of our request to move his sheep about. Additionally, we would like to offer our thanks to all our many sponsors in kind. This year we are proud to support Riding for the Disabled NO DOGS OFF LEADS – FINE £50 NO DRIVING OF UNAUTHORISED VEHICLES OUTSIDE CAR PARKS

CONDITIONS The Allerton Park Horse Trials 2026 will be conducted in accordance with the British Eventing Rules 2026. DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY Save for death or personal injury caused by negligence of the organisers or anyone for whom they are in law responsible, neither the organisers of this event nor British Eventing, nor any agent, employee or representative of these bodies accepts any liability for any accident, loss, damage, injury or illness to horses, owners, riders, spectators, land, cars, their contents and accessories or any other person or property whatsoever, whether caused by their negligence, breach of contract or in any other way whatsoever. RESERVATION OF RIGHT The Organiser has the right: a) to cancel any class or event b) to divide any class c) to transfer competitors between sections of a class d) to alter the advertised times e) to refuse any entry HEALTH & SAFETY The organisers of this event have taken reasonable precautions to ensure the health and safety of everyone present. For these measures to be effective, everyone must take all reasonable precautions to avoid and prevent accidents occurring, and must obey the instructions of the organisers, officials and stewards. UNAUTHORISED ASSISTANCE Any intervention by a third party, whether solicited or not, with the object of facilitating the task of the rider or helping his horse, is considered unauthorised assistance and the competitor is liable to be disqualified at the discretion of the BE steward. In particular it is forbidden for a fence judge or official to call back or assist a competitor by directions, to rectify an error of course. REPORTING TO DOCTOR (BE Rule 9.2 - Rider Falls and Medical Checks) A Competitor who has fallen from a Horse must follow the procedure set out below. Failure by a Competitor to ensure compliance with these Rules is likely to incur a disciplinary sanction. • If he has been examined by an Event Doctor after the fall, he must follow the directions of that doctor. If the doctor has not allowed him to continue on that or any other horse, he must withdraw that horse from the competition and if he has other rides at that event, those horses must also be withdrawn (see Rule 4.9) or other arrangements made; • If the doctor imposes any conditions before a Competitor may continue on other horses which may have time implications, the Competitor must immediately inform and liaise with the relevant event officials. • If the Competitor has not been examined by an Event Doctor after the fall, he must not take part in any further phase until he has been examined and allowed to continue. • Under no circumstances must a Competitor leave the Event site after a fall until he has been examined by an Event Doctor. A Competitor who does so will be automatically medically suspended and must follow the procedure set out in Rule 9.3.2.3. • It is the responsibility of the Competitor to ensure compliance with these rules. Failure to do so is likely to incur a disciplinary sanction.

Spectators are, so far as is reasonably practicable: a) Encouraged to look at directions in the on-line programme at www.eventingscores.co.uk b) Directed clearly to key locations on the event site e.g. information point, toilets, first aid point or competition areas. c) Prevented from straying inadvertently into the path of oncoming horses by defined crossing points, signage, stringing, whistle blasts or public address announcements. ADVICE TO THE PUBLIC 11. The organisers of this event advises you that due to the prevailing weather, uneven and, in parts, irregular terrain at this event, it may at times be difficult for spectators to move around freely and easily. As a result of which, it may not be suitable for those spectators who suffer from certain medical conditions. All spectators enter the event at their own risk and are advised to wear suitable footwear. The organisers shall not incur any liability, except as required by law, in respect of any injury or damage to spectators or their property howsoever caused. CONTRACTORS 12. All contractors working at the Event are required to observe best working practises, comply with all legislation relevant to their business and take all reasonable and practical steps to safeguard their employees and those attending. EXHIBITORS/TRADE STANDS 13. All exhibitors / trade stand are responsible for the safety of their own stands and the risks that they may pose to other persons within the allocated space or immediate surrounding areas. 14. The conduct of the trade area is subject to monitoring by the Health and Safety Steward and Organiser. 15. The exhibitor / trader is responsible for all product liability in line with their statutory duties under trade description legislation. 16. Each exhibitor / trader must ensure they have complied with all statutory legislation regarding equipment testing, staff training and equipment erection. 17. The exhibitor / trader must ensure that they dismantle their equipment without harm to the public if they choose to do so before the close of the event and the public have left. 18. It is a requirement recommended by BE that all Trade Stand Owners ensure they are provided for under their own Third Party insurance for any foreseeable risks. EMERGENCIES 19. The emergency services at the event include the doctors, ambulances, vet and fence repair personnel. They have access to all parts of the site and can be quickly contacted through any steward, judge or official – most immediately through the issue of a personal radio. 20. Accidents involving horses and competitors are well catered for and the appropriate officials are constantly ready to report these as they occur and to call for appropriate emergency services. 21. Emergencies not connected with the competition (e.g. in the catering tent) may be dealt with by the emergency services on the site but outside emergency services (e.g. the fire brigade) may also be needed. 22. Any emergency that occurs on this site must be reported to the Event Organiser as they are responsible for the conduct of the whole Event site.
