This year’s seven-fixture Premier Leagues series reaches it midway point this week at the Cheshire venue of Somerford Park in Cheshire, which features 32 classes full of quality across three days (28 – 30 May 2021).

For the dressage enthusiast, there are action packed days all weekend. Friday kicks off with the Andrews Bowen Advanced Medium at 08:30 followed by the Saracen Horse Feeds Inter I and Haygain Inter II, TopSpec Medium and Fairfax Saddles Prix St Georges classes.

Saturday morning gets underway at 08:30 with the Children, Pony, Junior and Young Riders, each riding their respective FEI Team Test and hoping to catch the eye of team selectors. Later on we see the Fairfax Saddles Prix St Georges plus the LeMieux Grand Prix featuring dressage maestro Carl Hester with En Vogue, British Olympian Emma Hindle with Diesel 8, Anna Ross and Newton Domino, fresh from their Hickstead success, and a wealth of up-and-coming combinations.

Sunday is the biggest day of all, with the spectacle being the Grand Prix Special where Carl Hester will once again be in action. This Class is scheduled to start at 13:30 running to 16:30.

Horse & Country will be there to bring you livestream on their H&C+ platform. A subscription is just £5.99 per month with no contract and you can cancel at any time. There’s loads more dressage content coming up on the platform so you’ll have plenty to watch in the coming weeks.
