South East Eventer?

[DanielleP]

So what are all the South East Eventers up until the fun starts all again next spring?

There must be more to do then a bit of dressage!

Thanks!

Well, I'm not 'one of them'....but I suspect a spot of BSJA would be on the cards, and there are some indoor eventers challenges around our way too...

 

[vic07]

Bloodhounding - coakham or kent and surrey

bsja - can't afford prohibitive entry fees.

Bd - might affilliate the dressage horse and take him out at adv-med.

dressage and show jumping - unaff just for eventing practice.

Hi

BSJA, dressage plus might try some BE on ticket, training clinics, weekend away Steve Hadleys for jumping and may go hunting again

Going to take it easy

 

[vic07]

Oops meant to put prohibitive registration fees!

 

[Hattikins]

im up to general "ticking over fitness" work

BSJA - my sjing can be a little to be desired sometimes!!!!!!

unaff. dressage with the baby, and hacking mostly.

Fiddler has a 6 week walking programme from 11december and should be in fitness work ready for the start of the season

 

[jennystreek]

dressage and bsja......mainly oldencraig/stilebridge/felbridge/duckhurst and royal leisure.

Dreading it already........cold winters mornings hanging around ALL DAY waiting to do a 30sec round and suffering 4faultistis........bring on march

 

[DanielleP]

yes i think there is a eventer challenge at golden cross this weekend are you going?

 

[DanielleP]

Wouldnt mind looking into the bloodhounding any ideas where i should start? mind you 2 of my 3 are pretty fizzy do you think it would wind them up ?

 

[DanielleP]

Sorry im new here is Fiddler injured? what did he do ?

 

[DanielleP]

oh might see you at felbridge or royal leisure

i know what you mean with 4 faultitis have one mare who noone can beat on time and although she is amazing xc sha can be a bit economical with her feet SJ!

 

[Hattikins]

yes Fiddler is injured, and has been since Eridge BE at beginning of July. He did his back, bruised a sole and finally the underlying problem - slightly tweaked a suspensory ligament all at the same time and as we solved each one the next injury reared its ugly head - so now its just time to fix his suspensory and then strenghtening and fittening work hopefully in time for munstead as he needs a nice confidence boosting run after over 6 months off

will probably see lots of you in the BSJA circuit then, mainly royal leisure (most weekends actually

) and also crockstead, golden cross, felbridge, sandsfarm and pyecombe!!!!

winter sjing here i come

 

[DanielleP]

are you going to golden x this weekend ? they have an eventer challange

 

[Hattikins]

im not going as Hattie has only been back in work a week having had 3weeks off, so we're hiring out pyecombe's arena and going to have a fun play up there before we venture in public

then we are going to have a crack at the 90cm amateur champs 2nd round that unbeknown to me until we got the letter from BSJA, we had qualified for at the area 46 show, so on the 5th november (i think!!) we will have a crack at that!!

 

[Rambo]

Don't think you'll be doing much BSJA at Felbridge or Pyecombe over the winter, as they've both finished now until next March

Might see you at RL, GC or Crockstead though...

Bloodhounding is great fun. You do a line then have a rest. So good for hot ones as there are boring bits in between. I went for the first time last year. Took a really good jumping horse - thank god as ended up jumping a 5ft 10in hedge. If you ring up or check websites you get a good idea of what to expect. Some days are bigger than others and you can often avoid fences if too big. But it was really good fun. So do go - planning on taking the intro as I haven't sold her!

Check out coakham or kent and surrey bloodhounds - both have websites.
