Salmon Arm’s Rebecca Howard will be competing in the Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials in Stamford, Lincolnshire, England Sept. 5 to 8.

The annual three-day event is one of six leading three-day events in the world, and the longest continuous running international event.

Since 1961, no other international horse trials site has staged as many championships – a record 10 in total – and the first world championship in 1966.

The winner takes £50,000 and prize money is given to the top 20 participants.

Howard will be riding Riddle Master, the same horse she rode with the Canadian Eventing Olympic  Team in the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, England.
