Festival of Hunting

[combat_claire]

So who is going along on Wednesday?

I am going to be helping with the minkhounds all day, but I may sneak in and watch some of the earlier foxhound classes before I have to change into my uniform...

Yep I'm going, will be suporting the hunt relay team, (my bro is riding my horse in it), watching some of the hound classes and doing some shopping, and off course drinking! Can't wait.

 

[JenHunt]

sadly not, but if someone would be so kind as to let me know how the Bilsdale and Hurworth hounds get on I would be very grateful. It will be the first time (or at the least the first for a very very long time) that the Bilsdale have taken hounds to Peterbrough.

I'll try JenHunt, just depends how much chance I get to see the hounds, hopefully will see a fair bit of them though.

Back from a great day at the Festival...rain held off..some great relay races going on and now nearly 2 hours of video footage to edit!

Hi JenHunt, i'm not sure if the Bilsdale actually took hounds in the end, they are down as representing but have no entries written down in the program. And afraid I didn't write down the results of the Old English Type, for the Hurworth, sorry!

 

[Boxers]

Anyone know the results of the relays? My daughter was meant to take part but unfortunately couldn't in the end due to her dad having to go to Scotland as his father is ill.

Hi all the results from the foxhounds, Old English type and also the hunt relay teams are on the festival website. Hurworth hounds did have some placings as well JenHunt. Which team was your daughter meant to be on Boxers?

She was booked in to go with Blankney Hunt Pony Club but had to pull out. then she was asked to go with Blankney Hunt Supporters but we had to turn it down

I am just going to have a look at the Festival website now.

 

[Boxers]

Oh bother - it's a pdf and my old laptop won't open it.


Can someone have a look see and see if the Blankney came anywhere?

 

[Ditchjumper2]

They did not get placed.

In the seniors I'm afraid they didn't get through the first round, don't worry neither did half the teams,, allthough some were lucky and got by's.

We were on the relay team for the first time this year, it was such good fun. A bit like a grown up gymkhana with lots of shouting! Brilliant atmosphere all day, well done to all who took part!

Thank you equischool. I couldn't go (dentist appt. ) but my horse was in the E Essex team and it was great to see him helping them into 2nd place
