I've just got a text to say my entry has been accepted eeeek!
As a first timer I'm a bit clueless as to the rules and the done thing on the day, I'm doing it on a ticket.
Does this all sound Ok or is any of it wrong, not allowed?
Drop noseband and full cheek snaffle in the dr, same as a I use BD. White saddlecloth. Bridle number and/or just bib number?
Grackle noseband and the snaffle for SJ and XC.
I thought I would wear a tweed jacket, black boots, beige jods and spotty stock for dr and SJ with my black champion SJ hat with a peak OR should I wear my crash hat that doesn't have a peak with a velvet cover OR should I wear my velvet showing/dr hat with flesh coloured harness?
XC I don't have any proper colours so I was going to wear just a thin breathable roll neck with back protector over the top? Or should I wear a shirt and stock?
My back protector is about 8 years old now, it's a Rodney Powell one with a purple lvl 3 label is that Ok? I was told I can't wear my SJ hat with a peak XC so I thought I'll wear my older crash hat (3/4yrs old) with a silk?
Medical armband - is there anything in particular I must include on this?
Number bib, My mum has hers from when she used to event 20 odd years ago that I could use, it ties up at the side. Is this correct? Do they give you the number to put in it or do you have to get it yourself before you go?
I was just going to use my normal saddle and girth for xc, you don't use overgirths nowadays do you?
Oh also it says to ring for times or check on the website a couple of days before. Is there anything else I need to do, I don't have to ring to declare now or anything do I?
I think that's it. Does that all sound ok? Anything I've forgotten?
Wading my way through the rules online on my iPhone would take forever as the sight takes ages to load.
Thank you so so much!!
