I'm a bit confused as to whether I've definitely qualified or not! We attended the 1st rounds in June and came 7th with a fairly average score of 62.8%. The venue we attended said this was a qualification for the 2nd rounds and yet I've had no correspondence from BD or Pet Plan to confirm this.
Looking at the Pet Plan site I'm further confused as it says the top 10 go forward to round 2 and there is no mention as to a minimum score so assumed this to be 62 or above as per the 1st rounds.
It then says to go to the national final you need over 63% .... I've interpreted this as >63 at 2nd rounds not 1st. But am now wondering if I'm wrong about this and haven't qualified at all!
Plus on the Pet Plan website it states my local venue for the 2nd rounds is running 7/8th October, so I booked the Friday off work in order to travel as still a >3h journey down..... but now see on the BD website it states running on 21/22nd!!! I also SJ an have booked onto the BS academy camp that weekend and paid the deposit to take 2 horses so cannot attend 21/22nd if this is the actual date on not the date on the petplan website!!! I've tried ringing BD to clarify and just keep getting 'all operators busy' so I've emailed both BD and Petplan and had no reply from either.
The next closest venue to me is a 5h drive and I wouldn't be able to get the time off work the night before for travel.... so basically wondered if anyone knew first off whether I have actually qualified with that score or not! Because if I haven't I shall just go off showjumping and enjoy camp.... but if I have I will need to look into the logistics of making such a long trip there and back in a day to the other venue which would be the week before camp so quite a lot of travelling for both me and the horse :-/
TIA to anyone that might know!
