Congratulations to young rider Tess Wallace and 'Rusty' for taking first place in the 1 metre open class.
The same pony/ horse/ rider combination should compete in two out of three weeks in the same class to be eligible for prizes in that class, on the final night; however, everyone is very welcome!
Competitors who won perpetual cups last year are asked to please return them for the final night. The club would like if competitors could wear their show gear on the final night, Thursday, July 27, but if this isn’t possible please do still come along.
