Went last year it was great. Expect really big classes i think 120+ in one of mine, but courses were really nice and surface excellent. Bit of a walk from stables to arenas but not too bad. Good luck, wish i was going too.

What classes you doing?
 
Sounds like its going to be fun - what did you jump last year?

I was told by my trainer that there would be a massive turn out so i was expecting it to be reeeally busy. I not jumping on the Thursday but jumpoing the 1.05 qualifer Friday and Saturday then we'll see what happens Sunday. My Trainer is jumping 1.40's i think and we have another horse doing the 5 year old class. So we are going to be busy!!!
 
I did the 1.00 and 1.05's qualified in the 1m for the final well pleased was 17th out of 117 in the qualifier and finished just out of ribbons in final (8th ).
They messed up in the collecting ring it was a bit of a free for all not drawn order as advertised but apart from that good fun, bit of retail and chance to watch some big classes too.
