In Eventing Technique, experienced German event rider Heinz von Opel has applied his extensive knowledge to the presentation of a practical handbook for the vent rider.

The text is broken down into easily assimilated sections, illustrated with pertinent photographs and line illustrations, with important facts highlighted throughout.

The author explores the preparation and training of horse and rider, interval training, the dressage, steeplechase, cross-country and show-jumping phases, giving invaluable advice about walking the course, tackling all types of fences and the considerations of alternative routes. Of particular assistance are the tips to help the rider on the day.

The result is a book which will benefit not only the novice event rider, but also give a fresh perspective to those who are more experienced.
