Entries are open for the 2025 NAF Five Star Hartpury International Horse Trials incorporating the British Championships at Hartpury College from 6-10th August 2025.

It is a big event on the British Eventing calendar with the international CCI2*-L, CCI3*-L and CCI4*-S classes complemented by the British Open Championship, British Novice and Intermediate Championships, the British Novice Restricted Championship (Corinthian Cup) and the Retraining of Racehorses Open Novice.

This is the second year that the British Eventing Championships will be held at Hartpury College, following their move in 2024 from the longtime venue at Gatcombe Park. Once again the cross country courses will be designed by Badminton course designer, Eric Winter and built by Dominic Moore with the organisers saying that the “CCI4*-S course has been designed to be a proper 4 star course, but slightly softer than the British Open course. The Championship course will be stronger than the CCI4*-S and is aimed to prepare the horses for a run at an autumn 5* competition”

The CCI2*-L and CCI3*-L tracks will be similar to last year while the British Open Classes will have their own championship tracks around the beautiful parkland and will be challenging courses for those who qualify. The Corinthian Cup (BC - NRC) will run around the Novice course while the Novice championship will be an Intermediate level course and the Intermediate championship an Advanced course.
