We very much look forward to building a long term relationship with the Estate and making this venture a success, for both Central Scotland Horse Trials and Dalkeith Country Estate. “I would like to thank our many supporters for their patience whilst we have been working hard behind the scenes to secure this venue.

We are saddened to report that the news that Scone Palace can no longer accommodate Central Scotland Horse Trials is true. Organiser James Oakden says "The committee are really surprised and disappointed to have been given notice that Scone Palace are no longer willing to accommodate Central Scotland Horse Trials. It is devastating to the British Evening calendar to loose two fixtures at such a fantastic venue. We are actively seeking an alternative site for 2013 so that we can continue to run this iconic event." "We are really grateful to Scone Palace for their hospitality over 22 years. The committee are aware of the loss of business to the local community and would like to find an alternative central venue to enable us to continue this event." "We hope that competitors and sponsors will continue to support us when we find a new site. We look forward to continuing our innovative approach to running a top class international event" added James.

Heather Galbraith has very kindly agreed to reschedule the event that was abandoned this weekend, 6th & 7th July, and to run a replacement fixture on 11th & 12th August.

On behalf of the committee and all the competitors, we would like to extend a very special thank you to the army of volunteers who gave up their time on 4 May to allow the event to run.

Finishing touches to the final fences
A fun-filled day for all the family - free entry for spectators
Painting party pals do us proud
We'd like to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone who turned up to paint. Thanks to everyone's hard work, all 13 new fences have been painted - and don't they look fab?! It's amazing how a bit of paint has transformed the pile of boring brown fences into eyecatching jumps each with their own identity.
Without the help of such willing, enthusiastic - and slightly paint-splattered - volunteers it would be impossible to run these events, so thanks again guys. (Added 5 March)
