Our boys second run at Urchinwood

[wizoz]

As it say's really. Boo is entered for Urchinwood with Aaron in the Pre novice, it'll be his second outing!

We have had him home for a week and I have kept him ticking over but now it's back to hard work again, he is a little inclined to think that after doing 10 minutes in the school, that that is his work for the day!!

Anyway, we are going up to watch, so will let you know how he gets on on wednesday.

We're in a PN too, but without any way of seeing who else is in our class. CCJ is number 78 I think. We asked for a late dressage as it's 85 miles away, so with any luck at 40 per section she will be near the end of the class.
What's your horse's name then I can look out for him?

 

[wizoz]

He's called Master Budi Bandit, we didn't name him

I don't know what's what with the times as he will be in with the Wiegersma contingent but I'll certainly keep an eye out for you and come and say hi

I will walk the course on Tuesday can let you know then who is in your section as they post a list. I will be walking about 6pm so can text times as well as the phones will be manic.

That'd be great, thank you so much

 

[henryhorn]

Thanks, it's a bit too far to course walk the day before even for CCj!
The last couple of events we seem to have had such top names in the section it depresses you before you even start....

I used to love it when I was up against the big names, it made me up my game.

You will be seriously disappointed by Urchinwood its such a crummy event!! But for me being so close to me it means it costs no diesel which outweighs going somewhere nicer like Highclere. I will get some photos for you and post them. Normally no pros make the effort but I expect this year will be different. Lucy W never goes so I think that says something!

 

[wizoz]

It's annoying that you can't have a look at recieved entries anywhere. Most events now have websites that you can check but looks like Urchinwood prefer to do it all the old fashioned way!
I must admit, I haven't competed there, nearly but I think my horse went lame and I had to withdraw

But like you say, it's relatively close, so if it means we get a run then that's good enough for me.

Good luck

Times seem to be up on BE website.

I'm helping in some capacity or another. Not at all sure what they've got planned for me - if I'm fence judging from my car - you'll spot me - the fence judge with the black sports car looking out of place among the more sensible off road vehicles.

Will try and leave after all the horse and arrive before them - it is not quiet (had to borrow OH's toy this week while my car gets MOT'd in Devon!)

Cool, i'll look out for you
