The French equestrian championships<\/strong> are a milestone for any self-respecting competition-level rider. With the pony events on 8 to 15 July 2023<\/strong> followed by club events on 22 to 29 July<\/strong>, this year’s championships are set for some sizzling competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the events run over several days, taking part is a little like temporarily moving house. So, to not get caught out, we’ve prepared a checklist<\/strong> for you for all essentials<\/strong> you’ll need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rather than your usual gear (saddle<\/a>, bridle<\/a>, riding helmet<\/a>, etc.) and your horse’s necessities (grain), we’ll focus on those smaller items that you might overlook<\/strong> but which could be really useful for this year’s French Championships.<\/p>\n\n\n

Stabling<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Don’t forget that the grounds at Lamotte Beuvron are huge<\/strong>, so you may have a long journey to reach your horse depending on where your stable stall is. A trolley <\/strong>or trunk with wheels<\/strong> could come in very handy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember to bring a stable curtain<\/a><\/strong> to shield your horse from direct sunlight. This is ideal to create some shade for it. To offer your horse more air and freedom, add a stall guard<\/strong><\/a>. Our model, whose carabiners are mounted on elastic reinforcements, ensures optimal safety. A head protector<\/a><\/strong> protects your horse’s head when his head is out of the box. If your horse is in a temporary stable, remember to bring some buckets<\/strong>. You can place them on the floor or hook them to the stable door. It’s up to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If possible, bring 2 halters<\/a> and leads rops<\/a><\/strong>. This way, there’s no crisis if one set breaks or gets lost. The Stressless halter<\/a><\/strong> is ideal for horses with anxiety at tethering. The elastic inserts on the headpiece and the cheeks reduce the risk of accidents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
