Moreton Morrel or Keysoe - first Novice?

[Vix1978]

Just making preliminary plans for the end of the season and would like to run the big grey one (everything depending!) in one/two novices before the end of the season.
Therefore, which would be the nicest first novice run: Moreton Morrel or Keysoe.

Thankies!!

Keysoe is quite straightforward with the bonus you can school there beforehand.

I'm probably not going to help your decision making but I think they are both ok (not that I've done either at novice level) but have walked the novice courses at both and thought they would be ok as a first run for my boy. I think the SJ arena is better at Keysoe, not as tight as MM....good luck!!

Moreton Morrell novice always seems to ride bigger than it walks and they always build the SJ up to height there. Not been to Keysoe so can't help with that one!

I would go for Keysoe, like Mel the Novice seems to cause a lot of problems even at the more straightforward fences.
Keysoe sjing is up to height but you have more room the xc is nice - i would def go to keysoe - may see you there in fact

Looks like Keysoe might be a front runner then. I'll try and get a school round there to test the water!
