Rallies at Plumpton this Sunday - CANCELLED

With regret we have made the decision to cancel the rallies due to take place at Plumpton College this Sunday. Temperatures are predicted to be in the mid 30's so this would be a great concern for horse welfare not just from the ridden aspect but also the travelling aspect when the temperature inside a box/trailer is far higher than the outside temperature.  Guidelines recommend that livestock should not travel  if the temperature exceeds 30 degrees, unless the vehicle is fitted with a thermoregulation system.

A full refund will be made to all. Sorry for the disappointment but horse welfare is a priority. Enjoy the warm weather and lots of ice creams instead!
