SPRING
SCHOOLING
Tuesday 14th May & Wednesday 15th May
3pm - 7pm
The Kennels Back Drive
Thorpe Satchville Road
LE14 2TH
Come and school round a flagged XC course of 60cm & 70cm, in pairs or individually. The format will be similar to that of a clear round course but you will have the opportunity to represent to fences where necessary, please just pull to one side if the next horse is on the course to let them complete uninterrupted. This event was extremely popular last year with everyone going home achieving more than expected, other riders were on hand for a lead if needed and the event is aimed to encourage without the pressure of a competition. Photographer in attendance.
£15 per horse ~ one round
£25 per horse ~ two rounds
