David Bailey I'm not as you can tell but here are a few pics from Cholmondeley.
First lot are yesterday; you might need glasses but they'll give you the general idea and no, I didn't take any of the first loop, the big log then corner brush were the first on the courses I took. No names as didn't have catalogue then.
I'll leave it to those that rode the courses to describe them. Not in course order either just to make it worse! :o

I was there on Sat, and I thought it was a great setting..... and the course was great, but it asked some difficult questions. I saw 3 dunkings at the water jump within 20 mins.
 
Wow! You got one of my daughter! It is fab, the dark bay with the white blaze landing over the fence out of the water - 9th down. I am so pleased to see this as I was lurking at the start terrified and thinking he wouldn't make it as far as the water! It was only his second novice and he is only 6 - rather a big ask. Actually, he really rose to the challenge and stormed round, had a green run out at the last part of the coffin having launched way to big over the ditch and landed almost on the third element! Otherwise, he was foot perfect so delighted with him,

Any chance of a copy....???
 
They certainly did look bigger In real life don't be fooled. The results are up be100 some sections only 50percent did not fault cc. Novice look at all the elims am off to check intemediate.

What a fluke and that sounds a very good run, well done them! Got this as well, sorry about the white shirt! You're very welcome to save them off here or I'll PM them to you if you want, glad to help.

If anyone has any numbers they want checking, I have a load more I didn't put up so just ask, if I have them you're welcome.

Thank you so much! I am delighted with these. The pro pics were at the brush corner which I could see from the start. They were duly purchased along with a lovely SJ one with the castle in the background. I can copy them from your post - just thought I should ask first!!

She said she went through the water at buckle end - and now I can see she did! Legacy of several unplanned duckings in the past!!
 
So glad to help. Was that the pro with the ponytail? We stayed at that fence a fair bit and the fence judges were something else, so busy nattering they missed whistling quite a few times with some walking the course with a horse about to bare down on them, we had to shout 'horse' to them ourselves, made it a bit fraught (control were told!)

I'm going to load all of the others onto PB then will post the link on here, will take a while but if anyone finds any they can use, they're more than welcome.
 
Didn't see them actually taking photos (busy hiding behind a tree being a terrified mother!) so don't know - only saw the results.
