Just watched a programme about it on horse&country t.v.
Looks like could be fun.

watched same programme looked as thought it would be good for getting a youngster out on a cross country course and seeing things like water, ditches etc.

Dito.... and also thought it looks fun

Since a bad fall XC that could have been much worse..... I am very wary of anything 'fixed'.

To me this looks like the ideal alternative

Dont think there are any local to me though!!

I have been thinking about doing this for a while.

I am certain I will never take any horse round a fixed XC course after seeing my friend's pony break his leg and be PTS.

I've been! I've been! *waves arms*

It was BRILL!! I loved it - it was so much fun

My confidence isn't brill XC but I absolutely loved this - one tip though - have a lesson with one of the course instructors, you'll get more out of it

I went with my share horse who is a youngster and it was great, we both really enjoyed it. Definitely very good for youngsters and for riders who don't feel confident about solid fences. Go for it!

[Gucci_b]

Will do Henny

Great idea....but no one round here ever got to run a competition and it seems to have died a death.

Went to a training day at Plumpton College a few years back. Thought it great though didn't understand the rules!!

And then for the following 2 or 3 years I rang them about the competition they were supposedly holding and they said 'no, not this year'.

Think they still do training, all very well....but I'd like the competition too!
