Hello everyone,
My goodness, it has been such a busy week in my world! The emails have been incredibly busy too, which is a reflection of how much is going on in the local equestrian world and I am delighted to be able to share all the reports, results and photos with all of you.

On the verge of this weekend’s activities, this Horse&Field newsletter brings you the latest instalment on last weekend’s competition, as well as details of forthcoming activities and the calendar of events.
There was plenty of excitement at The Meadows last Saturday, as the penultimate leg of the Inter-Schools’ show jumping league was held; the final is due to be held next Saturday, November 25.
There was a choice of venues for dressage enthusiasts on Sunday, with Lusk’s and Ardnacashel both sharing their results and photos here.
Also at Ardnacashel, the Wednesday night show jumping has concluded, with a mid week Working Hunter series about to commence.
For those who like a bit of glamour, the Best Dressed competition at Down Royal is always a very stylish affair - see more below.
Looking ahead, the annual Saintfield Christmas Charity Ride was launched last week and thoughts now turn to Santas on horseback!
More details on all of these and more are available by clicking on the stories below or visiting Horse&Field and having a scroll through!
