The Cup will take place on the steeplechase course between the grandstand and main arena and in between the walkways. Tenta- tive timing: preliminary heats will be before CCI3* show jumping and the champion- ship heats will be during a drag break during the CCI5* competition. Media Sponsor (and corgi lovers) Major League Eventing is operating the MD Corgi Cup, visit their website ( majorleagueeventing.com ) for details on how to enter. Timing will be updated.
