Helpers at junior and mini camp have been personally invited to help by Polly.
For safety reasons, ratio of adults to children etc., we are unable to allow any child who has not been invited into these camps which may be disappointing for some but we must adhere to our safety policy and anyone turning up without this invitation will sadly, be turned away.
Candy Robbins
On behalf of the SDHE camp and H & S Committees
A reminder for all attending junior and mini camp to bring your horses passport with you on the first day of camp - this will be retained until your horse leaves Plumpton on the Saturday afternoon. Without the passport we are unable to allow your horse access to Plumpton Racecourse. If you have any objections to leaving your passport overnight you may take it home each night with you, but it must accompany the horse each morning - racecourse rules, not ours!
Could campers also bring something to place their saddles on (we have bridle racks) and a rubber skip for mucking out into.
Many thanks. Senior campers all had a fabulous time last week and hope you all have an equally enjoyable time too.

Hickstead Teams this Saturday
Firstly these are rules imposed by Southdown Hunt West that must be adhered to:
Tack & Turnout requirements are as per the SJ rulebook but please note the following in particular:-
Timings
Hickstead have installed new horse walkways to all rings, making the time to get to each ring longer – Please allow at least 30 minutes to get from the stable field, through tack check and to the rings (especially ring four)
Venue!
We ask that all competitors treat the venue with due respect. In particular, if anyone is found in the International Arena (mounted or unmounted) the whole branch may be asked to leave immediately.
Hat Tagging: I will bring tags on the day if your hat needs to be done
Jewellery: Jewellery is no longer allowed even if covered up with tape!
Passports: Please bring your horses passport in case there is a spot check
Parking for boxes and trailers is via Hickstead Village turnoff from the A23 and follow the signs into the stable field. Cars, unless towing a trailer will not be allowed to enter the stable field and must park on the main showground and enter via the separate main showground entrance.
Tack check opens from 7.15 and is usually at the bottom of the stable field on route to the arena's – please have passports and spurs cards at this point for checking – they are strict!
Competitors must be ready to jump when requested – if not present after one minute, they will be eliminated. Competitors must enter and leave the ring as directed by the stewards. Any breach of these instructions will result in elimination. Each pony club will jump as a team and in the drawn order.
First round: All teams to jump in drawn order (will be timed in case of later tied results)
Second round: All teams on a score of 0 will nominate 1 member to represent the team for final team placing. This member must have gone clear in the first round. Nominations to be filled in by the Chef d'equipe (Candy) and handed to the judges before the second round starts.
The rest of the competitors who jumped clear in the first round will jump in the second round to establish individual placings and will jump in original drawn order, and against the clock.
70cm teams – grass arena. Ring 3
Class starts 9.00. Course walk at 8.15 with Angela (meet at the ringside) 37 teams in class
First team of: Megan Austin, Anna Currie, Jack Pincus and Rhianna Hawkins have been drawn 13th so would estimate a jumping time around 10.00
Second team of: Ben Burgess, Lily Taylor Martin, Ella Currie and Ethan Collins have been drawn 33rd so could do the second course walk at around 11.00 as estimate your jumping time to be around 11.45 but you are able to walk at 8.15 if you want to get the walk out of the way!
80cm Team: Ring 4, new arena.
Class starts 8.00. Course walk with Sarah at 7.15, meet by the ringside
Poppy Westwell, Abigail Johnson, Frankie Walker and Charlotte Subedar are drawn 11th to go (42 teams in class) estimate your jumping time to be around 9.00
90cm Teams: Polo arena (37 teams)
Class starts after completion of the open class in the Polo Arena and not before 12.00.
You lucky people can have a lie in but please be there by 11.00 to walk the course with Sarah in case things are hurried through and meet by the polo arena club house.
First team of: Emma Robbins, Chloe Macdonald, Tara Keosherigan and Francesca Turner have been drawn 12th to jump so estimate that to be around 1.00
Second team of: Francesca Birt, Charlie Pincus, Jess Fry and Grace Riminton are drawn 33rd to go but there is just the one course walk at around 11.00 so sorry you will have some waiting around to do before jumping but I am sure the first team would welcome any help with getting ready and for your support.
I will be there at 7.15 and will collect all numbers at the team managers briefing to pass on to you all from around 7.45.
Clear round jumping is available at 70cm & 90cm at a cost of £8.00 per round. Tickets can be bought from the secretary or at ringside – these get busy so please be patient.
Hope this essay covers most points. Please ensure you and your horse are spotless and all horses must be plaited – SDHE prides itself on the turnout of its' members. If you have a SDHE saddlecloth, please wear it – I do have some but probably not enough for all 5 teams. If possible please can you use plain navy saddlecloths so we stand some chance of matching!
Any problems with lameness, fitness etc., please let myself or Emily Pincus for the 70cm teams know asap so we can organise reserves.
Most importantly have a great day out – whatever happens keep smiling, there is always another day and competing is supposed to be a pleasure, not a punishment. Thanking the organisers of the event always goes down well too!
Happy jumping – see you Saturday bright and early!
