There have been some concerns regarding the decision to have Saddle Hunters and Working Hunters in the outside of the main ring at our Show.
This is the area that will be used, from the white line on the right to the mowed edge, no riding on the river bank. The distances are on there I hope you can see them. There is room to move the right side further out. And some room between trees and base of bank.
Saddle Hunters will have the whole area to gallop around 52mts by 34mts with potiental to be wider. Rings in the main ring would be approx 32mts round.
Working Hunters will be the same, jumps will be placed accordingly.
This change has come about as for Saddle Hunters there will be ponies in the ring at the same time, your space would be confined. Working Hunters told us they want their classes earlier in the day.
There will be a warm up area for everyone else further round at the end of the yards.
Please be aware that H &S was also thought of when making these changes.
All parking will be to the right of the white line (with rugby posts) they will be gone.
We hope that you will come give it a try and enjoy the Show with your friends.
Looking forward to Showday
