Another lovely ride complete - how lucky were we that the weather gods were mostly on our side. And with the rain we've had over the last couple of days, the going was perfect even for the barefoot horses.

A huge thank you to our incredibly generous landowners for allowing riders across their land again this summer. We are incredibly grateful to you.

As always these rides couldn't happen without our merry band of volunteer marshalls who ensure all riders get around the course safely without missing a vital turn - thank you to you all for giving up your Sunday.

Today's photographer was Anna Rainbow Rural Photography and the photos will be uploaded today. We do ask that you don't screenshot watermarked images from the website without purchasing
