This rally is aimed at talking to riders about the opportunity to pony race and will help prepare them if they fancy having a go. We have a novice pony race at Guilsborough Point-to-Point this year and would love to see some of our members having a go at their first pony race.
Please book in using the usual rally booking system of phpcrallybooking@gmail.com and then complete the attached form and return with payment. To Pytchley members there will be a charge of £5 and to pony club members outside the branch the cost will be £15.
The rally is at Stuart Morris's on land adjacent to West Haddon Hall, West Haddon, Northants, NN6 7AU. It is best approached via the A428 from the roundabout at the Eastern end of the village.
We look forward to seeing you at half term.
