Thoughts?
Do you think this should be more the "norm" so people are competing at unaffiliated for longer? Trailblazers have now started doing classes upto 1.15m and as a result are scrapping the 65cm classes...
Personally I think it's a bit pointless, as I can't really think many people would jump unaff upto 1.15, being as the fact there were regularly only 1 or 2 people in a 1.05 unaff class...the only people I can think that may do are the eventers over the winter who don't want to BS, or people with horses who have a lot of winnings BS, so don;t want the risk of putting more money on the horses card, but need ring experience for whatever reason....but then they are unlikely to go to things like the TB finals.
I also know locally 65cm was very popular..
So, what are peoples thoughts?
