The event, which attracted 13 teams from all over Lancashire, was staged at Hapton Common on Saturday, 20th April 1974. It was divided into three sections: dressage, cross country, and show jumping. Each team comprised four riders, and the best three in each team were awarded points in each event.

Individual winners of the dressage section were: Shirley Hamley (NE Lancs Pink) on El Diablo, and Beverley Morton (Bolton Red) on Saffron. The overall winners were: NE Lancs Purple: second, Rochdale Blue; third, NE Lancs Pink; fourth, Rochdale Green; fifth, Longton South; and sixth, Accrington Blue.
