hi just back from west buckland and whilst sj and xc courses a1 i cannot believe where dressage was this year it was awful to ask horses to compete on ROCKS&STONES surface shant be back next year if in same field iam not travelling 2 and a half hours to lame my horse this game is expensive enough
any one else have any views on this
thanks
 
i agree the dressage field was a bad choice but they moved it after last year the dressage arenas turned into bogs. I am sure they will be taking note of competitor's opinions as it was the only negative point to a very good event.

Least it was the dressage was on that field and not the SJ or XC!
 
agree dressage ground wasn't great but the xc and sj ground was lovely, imo. The event was well organised, friendly with well built courses. I would definately go again despite the 2 hour drive. I agree the dressage wasn't the best and I think it did affect my test (horse wasn't as forward as he normally is as he caught himself with a stone warming up so he felt like he was holding back a bit) and this was reflected in our mark but overall I thoroughly enjoyed the event
