Everyone seemed to enjoy the Dressage yesterday, the weather was warm (and a bit wet around lunchtime) and we saw some lovely horse & rider combinations.

We were pleased to have a few good comments about the new arena surface which looked to ride well.

Thank you to Sarah, Emma, Bev and Carol for running the competition and Viv for judging.

Chester has a lovely new rug thanks to a Charities grant from Minster Law Ltd. Our volunteer Beverley who is a Minster Law employee nominated us to receive funds to replace his old rug which had a HUGE hole in it. There's also some money left over to buy him a lightweight one too for warmer days
