Times for Spring Show 28th April 2024
We have unfortunately had a few issues with ensuring that our show field would be ready for this event, we had managed to mow the grass, but the wet weather plus a flood in the gateway, has delayed preparation and with the forecast for the weekend we decided that we would move the jumping into our Arena. Warm-up depending on conditions on Sunday will be either grass or a couple of jumps in arena.
Showing entries are disappointingly low, but we did not wish to cancel these classes so we will delay start of jumping and run the showing classes on grass in field next too arena.
We hope this way you will still have the opportunity too take part and can still have a lovely day.
This re-arrangement will mean we will have limited catering on the day.
Times for showing starting 10am prompt. (note these are the only classes running)
Riding Horse Class – 10am
Best Coloured – 10.10am
M&M – 10.15
Best Turned Out JNR – 10.25
Novelty classes start with Fancy Dress – 10.35
Approx. Jumping Times below: (note these are only a guide)
