Congratulations to everyone at our C+ test today.
Annabel and Georgie passed both the care and ride to achieve their full C+ test. Cesca unfortunately had to withdraw from the ride as Tilly wasn't quite right, but she did the right thing putting her pony first, and continued I'm great form to get her care!

Congratulations also to Sadie from the Vale of Aylesbury Hunt, and Oliver from Petersfield who passed their full and care tests respectively.

Thanks to Susy Butler for organising the test and providing the training, and to Liz and Michelle for assessing today.
