New to the 2010 Show, competitors from the Baileys JAS British Eventing series will also have chance to compete at the British Open. The top two placed competitors from the intermediate level of the British Eventing JAS 2010 Final will be invited to go on and compete at the British Open Indoor Cross Country Championship.
