A lil self indulgent post

They have started new evening jumping at one of my local centres with a lil class with £20 first prize - but you had to jump off against the ponies. We still came 4th so was very pleased as the rest of the line up were 14.2 and under.

Next Class was only 85cm, (£50 first prize) but they looked bigger as its a small arena, all fillers were in, wide spreads and I was about 12th to go and got the first clear! So was very pleased, jumped a lovely round. JO was a bit of a nightmare a no numbers written down, no one to ask as he was putting the fences up for the next class, so just hung around then went in! Had the first pole

was a bit agitated at not knowing when I was in, but she jumped a great round for another 4th but they only placed up to 3rd, even thou it said in the rules the first four qualify for the champs next year

Will ring them tomoz to check.

Could'nt have asked for more from May, she behaved brilliantly. Going to be brave and do the 1mtr class next week

I'm presuming that was unaffiliated

If so, be careful if you are a member of the BSJA as I don't think you're allowed to jump unaffiliated for prize money exceeding £10

Given up with BSJA as all our four show centres are not running any intro classes. Going to do this 'Festival' jumping and Trailblazers instead.

They have changed to jumping rules so you are allowed to win money even if you are BSJA registered, the guy who runs it is a BSJA judge

That's a shame about your centres not running Intro

Still, sounds like you've got other options now lol! Well done on your results though

It was at Valients, bit out in the sticks, but only 20mins from my new yard!! It was an 85 class for £50, but it was built as a British Novice Course - will take piccies next week!! Then the final class was 1mtr also for £50 1st prize.

We are having soooo much fun this year, just getting some hunter trials/XC booked now!! She has turned out to be a lil superstar for me, with attitude, of course!!
