Dauntsey BE - Wiltshire

[seche]

Whos going?
Ive just entered and praying they dont ballot me!

 

[H-J]

Think my trainer is going to that - I would have atken Dexter had he not been lame

Will go next yr though if still running, hope you get in and have a good day

 

[seche]

Two river crossings as described on the BE description of it!!!

Hope it stops raining soon so its just a trickle rather than a raging torrent! Hope Dexter gets better soon! love your Brightling Pic!

Aww thanks - I love that one too bless him. Should be able to start riding start of October

Then hopefully get out and do some dressage in Oct, we'll see though!

Im going can'not wait (unless i get ballotted of course!)... i just want to get out eventing again. Im having withdrawel symptons at the moment.... just really hoping monmouth runs...

Im going (I hope) to do the Novice, BE said it was a straightforward galloping course, which fingers crossed it is because it will be Zeb's 3rd Novice and Iw ant him to have a nice run!

 

[TableDancer]

Have entered N, but also entered BCA on the basis that the way things are going, the likelihood of both running is slim

If they do, pony may get 2 runs in 4 days - that should wake him up, after all these long gaps due to cancellations

He's supposed to be doing 1* soon so should be fit enough and both are pretty flat (if Dauntsey is at the same venue it used to be years ago which I can just aobut remember

)

I suspect it will be big and bold and not for the fainthearted since it is being run by the people who did Charlton Park and that certainly wasn't small! Plus they have Beanie Sturgiss on board too (is it her land it's being run on?).

I am planning to enter the Novice as my horse loved Charlton Park and that kind of big bold large jumping course suits us well. Very glad there will be something in hopefully a similar vein to CP to replace it as that was one of the best events I went to last year.

 

[cheekycharley]

I was thinking about that... - entering both events - im in two minds weather to do it quickly. Our really need the runs before aldon...

Dauntsey BE is in my village so I'm going to go and have a snoop round soon as there are foot paths all across where the xc course will be. So far from when I been out hacking I 've seen tables in a hedge and a biggish step jump. will report when i've had a walk round.

[kick_On]

Me, i'm praying it stops raining and i bet you they will ballot as so much has been cancelled. Fingers crossed, cos i'm fence judging i'm hoping i will not get balloted

 

[seche]

OH ME TOOOOO!!!! Everything crossed for both Monmouth and Daunt - Heck Ive also got Purston and Morton Morrell to worry about too!

 

[seche]

Oh yes PERLEASE take a camera! - always nice to know whats up ahead!!!!!

 

[MizElz]

Oh my word, Dauntsey is just five minutes up the road from me - where on earth is the XC course? Has it been newly built this year?

 

[machannah]

The river crossing used to be a paddle across a stream from memory. Its quite flat there and old ground, so if it stops raining i would guess the ground would be quite nice.

I would agree with the big and bold, it used to have an advanced track which i walked aged 15 and was nearly ill at the sight of it!!

 

[seche]

Really comforting thanks! - Its PN and N so hopefully it wont be toooo terrifying? (!!!!!)

 

[ColouredFan]

I am entered for the Novice Fingers crossed I wont get balloted Ive only managed 3 events so far this year!

 

[MissDeMeena]

I think i'm entered for the novice there too..
Looks like it could be the event with the most HHO'ers there in one go!!

 

[seche]

Drinks at our lorry? Mum always brings a giant liquid picnic!!!! - It helps her cope!!

 

[MissDeMeena]

Well i'll be popping round just before the SJing and XC then

 

[seche]

Ill be sobering up after the dressage!! - what a thought...

 

[Mel85]

Yes I've been hacking past but didnt see much more than Emma!

I won't be going as mare hopefully going to Weston the following week, but I will probably be there doing something!
