Actually, this is a four-day event - the first two days are given over to dressage. Saturday, when ticket prices are highest, is most popular, with a cross country event that includes 32 fences, walls and water obstacles. The top 20 competitors compete in show jumping on the last day. European, Australian, Irish, US and Canadian competitors regularly take part.
