The 2012 Provisional Timetable is now available to view on line at: www.equifest.org.uk Please take a look and let me know your comments. We have tried to listen to as many of the suggestions as possible - and have included Amateur classes, more WH / Nursery Stakes / Cradle Stakes / Junior Ridden M&M Championship and an Open Working Hunter Championship class. We have divided the Equifest Championship classes up a great deal more for 2012 so that hopefully the classes will run more to time. We are also planning on starting on Wednesday afternoon and running our classes through to Saturday evening. The only classes we will run ourselves on Sunday will be the Heavy Horse In Hand classes. If you know of anyone with a HH please get them to support these classes - or we will not be able to continue them after 2012! If you have any comments, please email: bbranyan@eastofengland.org.uk Thank you Betsy Branyan |

Just looking through the timetable & noticed that on the Thursday, it looks as though the Junior Ridden Large Breeds & one of the Open Ridden Large Breed classes are going to clash. Could this be looked into? |

Yep we noticed that too... good idea with starting Wednesday cannot wait. Just wondered; this year you could only arrive Wednesday (apart from those travelling from overseas) just wondered if you'll be able to arrive Tuesday next year? |

New to this. Do you have to qualify for all classes? Just little confused with chat of booking stables early or is it just that there are many chances to qualify??

Would you consider splitting some of the M&M in - hand classes into stallion, mare and geldings in seperate classes? Or even adding theses classes to the shedule? |

Also, I don't understand the PC/RC section. Would I have to join my local RC to compete in these classes  |

The revised timetable is now on the Equifest website - under "schedules". I have tried to make as many of the changes as possible - after reading comments on both Horse Gossip and the Equifest Face Book page. Please let me know your comments as soon as possible. I am starting the Judges on the weekend - and hope to start getting the Judges on the website at the beginning of the year. www.equifest.org.ukThank you very much for your helpful comments! Yours sincerely Betsy |
