We’re thrilled to announce that Equine Bitting Solutions, a professional horse bit fitting and rider education service based in Kent, will be a sponsor at Dressage at Hickstead 2026, held at the world-famous All England Jumping Course in Sussex. International dressage is returning to this iconic venue under the organisation of international rider Daniel Watson of Aster Events and Craig Messenger.
It’s a privilege to be part of such a prestigious international event that celebrates excellence, partnership and horse welfare. These are the same values that sit at the heart of Equine Bitting Solutions. Through our bit fitting services across the South East and educational guides, we help riders achieve clearer communication, greater comfort and lasting connection with their horses.
This year we’re proud to introduce a new feature, the Groom of the Year Award. Behind every outstanding test is a dedicated groom who keeps horses calm, cared for and competition-ready. It’s time these unsung heroes had their moment in the spotlight.
During the event, I’ll be walking around the Hickstead showground chatting to riders about their brilliant grooms, hearing their stories and celebrating the incredible teamwork that makes this sport so special. There will be some lovely prizes for the winners too.
It’s shaping up to be a fantastic celebration of international dressage at the All England Jumping Course, Hickstead, showcasing not only talented riders and horses but also the people who make it all possible.
