Spancill Hill Fair Gets New Parking Spaces

Visitors to the Spancill Hill Fair will breathe a bit easier this year with new parking spaces for lorries.

Through the generosity of a local farmer a field has been opened for the morning and day of 23 June, right across from the usual entrance. The Fair goes ahead with all of its usual classes.

Olympic programme changes

The FEI President welcomed confirmation by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) last week that equestrian will be in the Olympic programme for 2024. Olympic formats submitted by the FEI for the Tokyo 2020 Games were also announced as having been approved. The new formats include teams of three and no drop scores and the use of reserve athletes for medical reasons.
