THE Spanish Riding School will be performing in London next November at Wembley Arena. It is five years since the highly-trained horses and riders from Vienna have visited the UK and they will be here for just three dates, November 25-27.

The white Lippizaner stallions and their riders will be performing in a new show called Imperial Dream, a display of classical equitation which will show how they achieve the absolute balance and harmony for which they are famous.

Ten Maxi Cob qualifiers will take place in association with the British Show Horse Association, with the winners going on to compete at the Horse of the Year Show.
