Apologies if I've put this in the wrong place... I'm looking to do my stage 3 jump in September/October. What are the horses like at ingestre? And is the cross country big and up to height and scary? Thanks in advance!

Thanks CIJ. Yes I've had a look at the 3.5 tonne lorries, but it's another vehicle to keep on the road and keeping going in the winter...I've made the decision to sell my 7.5tonne lorry purely for the fact that I just don't use it enough and it's been sitting most of the winter with the...

Thanks everyone, it seems there are pros and cons to both trailers then! When I was younger we had a IW505 and never had any issues with the breast bars coming out but I guess this is something to bear in mind then...my yard owner took me out today with his IW511 as I'd never towed anything...

I'm looking to downgrade from my 7.5tonne lorry to a trailer. I don't use the lorry enough to justify all the extra insurance, plating, tax etc. I've been looking at the ifor williams 511 trailer and the equitrek show treka as this has a bit of living in it...but just wondered which trailer...

Another vote here for the Ariat Grasmeres, they are so warm and comfortable in the winter. Definitely recommend them.

Definitely jumping, although the flatwork is important too. I have a 14yr old Grade A schoolmaster who I don't think would be very impressed to turn up at a show and there not be any jumps...! ;)

Well done :) he looks lovely :)

Yes that's correct, notional money is the limiting money

Chloe goes out everyday whatever the weather, she is much better this way, if she's kept in for a day the next day she goes out she flies round the field so far better she goes out everyday to reduce the chance of injury! She's been having hay out there along with the other mare in her field and...

He looks super :) Well done..you should def go xc schooling :D

I think I'm going to jump there in the bucks beginners class and the newcomers :) What classes are you doing? I've not filled in my entry form yet!

Yes I have been there - I went there for their kickoff april show. It was very busy on the day I went and they ran quite late - they had to cancel the newcomers one night as it started to get dark. I'm not sure what its like on their one day shows though... The courses were nicely built though...

Well done on qualifying for scope :) That's my aim with my rising 7yr old :) To qualify for the British Novice 2nd rounds you need 4 dc's at this height, the same with the discovery, newcomers and foxhunter :) You have until the 30th april 2010 to get your dc's for this year. From the 1st may...

Disc and 1.05 on the Fri and then disc and newcomers on the sat and sun What classes are you planning on doing?

My friend has entered already...but she emailed her entries and her mum phoned and paid...the online entries don't appear to be open so I've just emailed them and will phone on monday to confirm and pay
