The Welcome Week brings something for everyone. The hunter classes offer rated and non rated sections, from opportunity classes to equitation and medals, while the jumpers provides an excellent selection of classes. The week would not be complete without Sunday's Classics and our all new 2'6" Pre Children's/Adult Hunter Derby.
