Scone Palace International Horse Trials’ Hunter Show on Thursday 21 August comprises a range of showing classes for ridden and working hunters.

The working hunter classes include both Novice and Open classes, as well as the BHS Scotland Working Hunter Final and the BHS Scotland Riding Club Working Hunter Final. Competitors in these classes will complete a round of rustic fences and then perform an individual show.
There will also be an Open Show Cob Class to include Maxi Cobs, and two qualifiers for the CHAPS (Coloured Horse & Pony Society) UK championships at Arena UK. These will be a Native/Cob/Traditional Open Ridden Qualifier and a Non-Native Open Ridden Qualifier.
