Hi there dressage riders .... I have noted the conern of some of you of riding Intro A after Prelim 1 and to this end have done a bit of shuffling to accommodate you better. Please note - times for the Intro A class and for some of you in Prelim 1 have now changed - so please have a good look at the new ones. The times for Prelim 12 and Novice 24 stay the same. With regard to warming up times - please note that you will have the time of the current test rider + 4 more slots in front of you and as the times are set at 6 and 7 minute intervals, this should give you just over half an hour. If this causes you any issues, please email me.

We have had a brilliant day with the Level 2, ED1 and HE students visiting Horse of the Year Show today. Its such a great show with a great range of different things for the students to see - today we watched the Blue Chip Pony Foxhunter Final, Charlotte Dujardin's question and answer session, the Search for a Star Working Pony and Horse showing classes judged by Robert Oliver and Katie Jerram and of course indulged in a little retail therapy.

Hi there dressage competitors. Here are your times for Sunday. As we have very good entries as I didn't want to turn anyone away who entered on time, I have changed the format slightly and the Intro A test and the Prelim 1 test will be running concurrently - Intro A inside, with an indoor working in area and Prelim 1 outside, with an outside working in area (limited to the next 4 competitors to go). Once we get to Prelim 12 and Novice 24, these will be running indoors with work in outdoors as you are more familiar with. For some of you that means that you will be riding Prelim 1 before Intro A so please have a good look at your times. You will see that I have also split the Intro and Prelim tests into 2 sections to ensure a better share of rosettes. A couple of you have also been a little concerned about Prelim 12 having revised by it, the pathway of the test is exacly the same - the revision is the collectives at the end being updated to the new version. The good news also is that the xc field is dry enough for parking so that there is going to be plenty of space for everyone to spread out. Looking forward to seeing you all for a great day on Sunday.
