Explain please?! Is it like 2 phase but you jump the "JO" bit regardless of whether you have a pole in the first part? Or is it all timed? 
Thank you!
Thank you!

Single phase is fab as you jump all jumps and don't get buzzed out - so 12 to 14 jumps for your money (good value!)
Two phase you get buzzed out after first 8/10 if you've messed up

If I was clever I'd take it from the rules to be precise, but I'm not and I'm also lazy so you can have my version of it lol!
Single phase is a course of usually about 12 fences (so a wee bit shorter than most 2 phases). Regardless of how many fences you have down in the first section (say 1-6) you still go forward to the second half of the course which is timed. Any faults you accrue in the first section are added to your faults and time for the second section. I don't tend to find them as strong in height on the second section as the difference between 1st and 2nd phases in a 2 phase, but not sure what the exact ruling on heights is.
I really like them, 2 phase is really annoying when you've paid £20 to enter and you only get 7 fences or so - at least you get a full round for your money!

It isn't all timed, it is just like 2 phase only you get to carry on regardless (Es aside). As above, I love it, much better value for money although it taxes my old brain having to remember all those fences 
Allens Hill nearly always run single phase.

Okay, so in single phase, there is no JO? That would be good news!

No, the jump off is the second half of the course. You jump the whole course even is you have faults in the first half

Be careful about the time in the 1st half of the course in Single Phase sometimes it can be quite tight and you don't want to jump DC to find out you got time faults in the 1st half of the course. At Blue Chip it caught so many people out!
