Hunter trials - South east??

[H-J]

Does anybody know of any hunter trials around my way, about 1 1/2hr drive max from Essex over the next few weeks?

Just rung about Poplar Park this Sunday but they are full

Pachesham is on on the 11th of November, don't know how far away that is from you though...

 

[H-J]

Do you know where I can find details?

I know you go to Little Downham. They have a x-country on this weekend, you may still get in if you give them a ring. forgot to say if you do the 3ft or the 3ft 3" it will be over the BE course

 

[H-J]

Bit too far for HT and it is fully booked anyways

Hi,pachesham is ok,norm well run for unafil,i did a few last yr b4 i went BE,good for a baby or to get to know the horse. Open has some decent size fences,but u always get lots of the liveries bombing round getting all the placings?? (thats wat i found).BUT its something to do isnt it. JUNC 10 off m25 fro me,and only 10 mins from there! good luck

To be honest I don't know

I'm at uni in Surrey and only just started, so I going with a friend hehe I'll get her to post on here or PM you

Thanks - Couldnt believe the price of the classes!!

£18 per class plus £3 1st aid so a total of £39!!

Oh well better then nothing. Then just hunting till next year after that me thinks!

haha emma! ...friend has arrived!
is it the open you've entered HJ? pachesham has nice, relaxed and well run competitions. atleast the price reflects in the prizemoney!

depending which way round the course is the water could be the 3rd fence or one of the last, tis a big log then drop in and straight out. Theres a few fences in/out/inside the woods. rest are solid fences, very few skinnies(if any?). imo one 'scary' fence,if you see both sides lol, it's the table (has a bench, verticle rails, then bench on otherside too), but looks inviting from horses perspective. humm what else...oh there's quite a few steps/sunken road type fences too.

i'm all out.

Pachesham is pretty good for unaffiliated. They have a good variety of fences and the water complex is quite new and inviting. I can probably dig out a few youtube videos of the courses if you like.
