Hi,
I'm trying to decide where to go for my first Novice BE, hopefully around the end of June/beginning of July. The events that seem to be near me at this time are Stratford Hills, Milton Keynes, Purston Manor and Eridge. My horse definitely suits the less technical courses (big is fine!) and showjumping isn't a concern, he's not at all spooky and generally jumps better the bigger it gets.
I've searched previous posts about some of these events and it seems that Eridge wouldn't be a good first novice, are there any thoughts on the others? I've been XC schooling at Stratford Hills, which I thought seemed reasonably straightforward but unfortunately didn't get to jump much that day.
Thankyou
