Hi Members,
The September rally marks the start of Spring, so lets hope that the long cold winter is behind us and we are in for some nice weather on Sunday. With our own YHPC Horse Trials coming up, we will endeavor to get as many riders as possible

Welcome
A warm welcome back to Georgie Sanchez and Emma Szepe. Between boarding school, studies and changing horses, we haven’t seen these girls for a while so we look forward to seeing them and meeting Georgie’s new horse, Chester and Emma’s Billy. We also welcome Madolyn Bonnicci who joins us as a guest rider at our September rally.
