Today we resorted to Plan B for our monthly Pole Work Clinic, moving from the outdoor arena to our lovely indoor, to avoid the summer downpours.

So it was a last minute change of layout (as our pole work exercises are always planned in advance) but the exercises worked brilliantly as always.

Thank you to all of the combinations who joined us today - ten out of ten for effort and enthusiasm, with plenty of positive work achieved.

Our Wednesday Pole Work session has proven to be a big hit, so please look out for our July Clinic date. Pictured is Dawn with her stunning youngster, Wanda, who enjoyed their first pole work clinic away from home.

Thank you so much to everyone who headed over to CEC yesterday to join us for our Unaffiliated Show Jumping.

It was a pleasure to welcome so many regular supporters back, as well as having some new faces join us for the day. The course rode beautifully, with a very rare eight double clears being brought to the table in the 50cm class!

We saw some incredible jump offs and strategic turns, with Louise Bell-Knight and her super mare, Jewel, taking the crown for the fastest jump of time of the day, in just 15.10 seconds! A big round of applause also goes to Paul Stafford, and Max, who also rode two double clears, to take the red rosettes for both the 60cm and 70cm classes.

Capturing all the action from the day, was the brilliant Craig Ellis Photography, who worked tirelessly from start to finish. All photos can be viewed and purchased using the following link -https://craigellisphotography.instaproofs.com/gallery/ /2154269

Our next Unaffiliated Show Jumping is on Saturday 4th July, and is not only part of our Points League series, but is also a qualifier for the Sunshine Tour, held at the iconic Hickstead show ground, in September. For further details on the Sunshine Tour, please visit www.sunshinetour.co.uk

Thank you once again to all the wonderful horse and riders who joined us today for our monthly Pole Work Clinic.

Our pole work layout offered plenty of variety, with focuses on changes of bend, maintaining rhythm, and accurate transitions between the pole work exercises, to name but a few!

We had plenty of breathers between exercises, and were fortunate enough to enjoy a welcoming breeze over the arena throughout the morning. Whilst it did get hotter in the afternoon, our combinations coped brilliantly, with plenty of accommodations to allow for the heat.

Excellent work from all of our riders today - thank you for making the day a real pleasure.

Our next Pole Work Clinic date is a mid week date next month - Wednesday 10th June. Bookings open via www.equoevents.com, with evening spaces now limited
