Thanks to the lots of people who helped and to all who took part. A good day - and no rain, warm even. The scores are here. A few photos at www.mikewatts.com here. |

If, like us, you have been eyeing the weather forecast for Saturday at Wix, please note that, thanks to the seasonal generosity of Wix EC, we have the use of the warm-up arena for the whole event! |

We may not be Boyd Exell but we can have a go at Wix "World Cup" driving - two obstacles in a cones course, timed. This is a fun event in the main arena and is not a championship qualifier. Drivers must have competed in indoor driving trials before entering this event. Please note that all drivers must be current members of the Indoor Horse Driving Trials Club - for insurance purposes. How does it work? Each person drives the course three times in turn with the others in their group (in the same way we drive the obstacles normally). Your first go will be timed and scored but is a practice round only and does not count in the final score. The better of your second and third rounds counts in the competition. HELPERS WANTED, PLEASE! We are very short of helpers as we don't have the wonderful indoor team so if you can come early (8:30) and help us build the course we'd greatly appreciate it - and help us to dismantle it at the end of the day, too! Please bring your friends and family to watch or to help put balls back on in the arena, and to spot them falling off - the latter from the comfort of the cafe, if they wish. Thank you. Spectators are welcome. Please call me if you have any queries - 01473 735732 or 07710 467774. |
