The Bluegrass Autumn Championships was held at Portmore Equestrian Centre from Thursday 21st to Sunday 24th of October. 

This year the Autumn Championships was bigger than ever with Bluegrass Horse Feeds sponsoring two Grand Prix classes worth £10,000 in prize money. The four days saw some fantastic jumping with classes from 90cm to 1.30m, including young horse classes. The four-day show had big entries across all of the classes, including 55 entries for the Bluegrass 1.35m Grand Prix. 

Bluegrass Extra Pro-Range, a low starch, high fibre performance range, sponsored the championships. Bluegrass representatives were about the show over the 4 days providing advice, free samples and presenting prizes for the class winners. 

Congratulations to all competitors!
