Looking up a BE record - How?

[3Beasties]

As title. Do you have to be a member to look up a horses BE record?

If so could someone who is registered check out a horse for me please?

Anyone can look - just type the horses name into the search box on the BE website

You dont have to be a member, just go on the british eventing website, type in the horses name in the search box and it will bring up its record.

Great thanks, now just to understand the results

Which horse is it? Maybe someone here can interpret?

 

[meardsall_millie]

Whaddya want to know?

I think I get it He's not evented since 2008 (has just hunted since I think) which isn't a problem as TBH I only plan to do local level, would like something that will SJ though.

He's called ALFIE IX, he would have been 4 that year.

He's only finished on his dressage score twice by the looks of it?

Doesn't look like a clean jumper, and out of 8 starts XC he has had 4 refusals, maybe a rider thing but I'd want to take him round a SJ and XC course before committing.

according to record he would have been 6 in 2008 not 4. Pretty poor SJ record reasonable dressage and ok XC although a few stops in there with one of the bet XC riders in the country on board.

Ahh yes my bad

Humm, not sure if he's worth a look or not! I want something to hunt and do a bit of everything on....

BE Novice is 1.10m so whilst the XC will be big (IMO!) the SJ isn't that bad and what most good amateurs I know aim for. I'd look at him but try him well over fences, as SC says his dressage isn't bad

What's he up for?

 

[3Beasties]

He's cheap, £1500 They need a quick sale (he's owned by the hunt committee), if he doesn't sell this week he's going to Leominster on Friday!

 

[Santa_Claus]

well he can jump a decent sized fence although sometimes needs two looks , would question why did nothing further presume was decided not brave enough and sold off as a hunter!

Worth a look at the price!

That's what I though, maybe they hoped a seasons hunting would make him braver but he took to it so well that that's what he stuck at.

He is older then I wanted (didn't want older then 7) but if he's right in all other ways I think it's worth the compromise, he's very local to me so worth a short trip to try
