Hi All,

 

In the New Year we are running a series of monthly stable management rallies for C and C + members. The dates are 12th January, 29th February & 28th March. These will be held at Townplace, please book online. We are hoping to offer both a C and C + tests next year, these rallies are important if you'd like to take either of these tests. But if you'd just like to learn more about horse and pony care do come along too.

 

The next mounted C and C + rally is 18th January at Plumpton. Again it's available to book online.

 

Happy Christmas to you all, looking forward to seeing you in the New Year..

Drawn order for Golden Cross this Sunday - classes with Candy 4,5 and 6

Drawn order for Golden Cross this Sunday 1st December

Approximate times are a guess only allowing 2 minutes per round x number of competitors – please don't hold a gun to my head if they are wrong!

 

Class 4: Debut - there are 29 in this class and I would guess it to start around 12.30

 

4th          Emily Allardyce Bassett – Nelly Kid

 

 

 

Class 5 -  Small Novice - there are 7  teams and a few individuals. We are the first team to jump following 1 of the individuals and would imagine the class would start around 1.45 so will need to warm up before walking the course.

 

2nd          Emily Allardyce Bassett – Nelly Kid

3rd          Frankie Walker – Fahys Queen

4th          Tilly Appleyard – Malone's Mate

 

 

 

Class 6:  Winter League – there are 18 in the class  and hopefully starting around 3.00

 

2nd           Frankie Walker – Fahys Queen

7th          Tilly Appleyard – Malone's Mate

 

 

 

 

Briosa will be there to walk the course with the small novice team – please meet him at the ringside at 1.00 as you will need to warm up before walking the course.

 

Please all be smartly turned out – clean, plaited horses wearing clean plain tack and wearing team saddlecloths.  Riders in hacking jackets, shirt, tie, badge, gloves, hairnet beige jods, clean boots and gaiters and again no bling!

 

Good luck to all of you – I will be there to support and to sample the bacon butties just in case they are not as good as they should be!

Holders of C and C+ test rallies - from Susie Newton and Sarah Taylor

Hi      For all of those that hold their C test or C+ and are working towards the next test we have put a series of three rallies on that are for preparation of the mock test day for C+ and B test in April at Crockstead and the actual tests.    They are not to replace normal rallies but are additional test practice:-    Monday 30th December from 1pm course jumping at Felbridge Showground in the Bill Kear Arena with specialist attention to course walking, related distances, striding etc, this will be taken by Donald Kear.    January 4th from 2pm at Alderlake, flat test riding practice this may include swapping horses in the session, focus will be on test requirements, instructor Sonia Chittenden.    February 20th XC practice in the Eventing Arena at Pyecombe, again this will take on a technical aspect relevant to the tests. Instructor Sonia Chittenden.    The Pony Club tests are a very valuable way of gaining knowledge both riding and stable management and we have had a huge uptake of members recently taking or working towards the tests.  They can also help you bypass some of the lower BHS Tests and we are also looking into the older members being able to go on to taking the UKCC teacher training courses which would be fantastic!!    Online booking will be available soon but if you could an express an interest on here I would be grateful!! Any further queries please message me or Sarah Taylor for any further information!!
