SHOWCROSS is a mixed course of show jumps and rustic fences (no water splash). The whole course will be timed with an Optimum Time running at 325mpm. Penalties will be given for jumping faults and time faults. The horse & rider with the least penalties will be the winner, with the exception of Classes 1 & 2 which will not have a timed section and will be judged on faults not speed so all clear rounds will be equal 1st place.
