Sandhurst Drag - Boxing Day - Video

[RachelFerd]

OH took a little bit of video footage whilst he was following on foot today. We got stuck in traffic on the M25, then on the A3, then on the A31 and took twice as long to get there as it should of done, so we ended up doing the first line with a couple of other stragglers as we had missed the meet.

First video is from the second line, and the second half of the video is from the third (and final) line.

My mare was a fruitbat as per usual - first two lines weren't too bad, but she was starting to get far too buzzed up through the last line and was flyleaping towards every fence, also managed to catch me in the face and has given me a massive fat lip! Never mind, we had a good day out anyway, and hopefully didn't get in the way of too many people.

You can see me on the vid - bay mare bouncing around a lot!

Is it your mare that's getting her Q's for P2P'ing? If so she's allowed to be a bit fruitbat She looks lovely, and I have to admit the SC&RMA have some lovely looking hounds.

 

[RachelFerd]

Yes it is, I'm trying to p2p her because she is too much of a fruitbat to event, so sadly i do have to expect horrendous behaviour!!

I think I saw you at the end of the first line (I was on the chestnut with the reindeer ears and tinsel lol) - amazed you found your way through the woods without the pack to keep up with - I would end up hopelessly lost!

 

[RachelFerd]

Ah... now i can put a horse to a name! Yours was the chestnut with the tail plaited up short, right? I think you are jumping a few horses in front of me in both video clips.

I was lucky in that one of the other people who had been held up by traffic I think was a whipper in (although not whipping in on this occasion) so he knew the way exactly - there were 4 of us that came through late, so we had a lovely ride through the woods and over all the obstacles!

 

[star]

yup, tail plaited up and green tinsel in it. just behind Andrew most of the time! your girl certainly looks like she was keeping your hands full!
