All CRI entries have to be approved by the National Federation. If you are interested in being notified when we receive invitations please email BritishReining@aol.com and ask to be added to the email notification list. If you arrive at a foreign venue and attempt to enter a CRI without having first informed us, you will be refused entry, so you will need to advise us of your intention to participate in before the closing date for entries.
