Novelty 3 Phase 20.10.13

Fun and games at Laurel View on Sunday 20th October at the Novelty 3 phase event.  Competitors had been promised that no jumping was required and any tests could be learnt on the day. The Le Trec Challenge was set up in the smaller indoor and there were seven different tests to tackle.  Obstacle Dressage was in the larger indoor and had the competitors ride in and out of bendy poles, round the cones, as they navigated their way round the course.  Then when everyone had had a go at the Obstacle Dressage, the course was whipped away and the barrels appeared, so that the third phase could get underway. Once the riders had figured out which direction to circumnavigate the barrels then we were all sorted for a flying finish, the scorer couldn’t manage to keep up on the calculator.  But the numbers were soon added and verified and the following results were announced.
