We love the Welsh Champs - it is such a friendly show and on Saturday evening they have a buffet supper for all the competitors to get together. The courses are on grass and although tough are always fair in my experience. Hope to see you there.

I have never been to wales and west showground before, although i believe there are lots of arenas. So why run the whp on grass?- surely its better all round, and poss more enteries if they ran whp on a surface?

Wales and west has several grass rings (and a derby ring) that contain ditches, banks, water splashes etc. Makes a very interesting WHP course when the facilities are utilised.

The worker courses on the grass arenas are brilliant, especially up and down the bank. The going is always really good.

We went last year for both days for the workers and it is a great show. The courses are great and the grass arena is brilliant, they have built in ditches, derby bank, devils d**e - apparently maybe turned into a water splash this year, and a hedge - but not seen it used for pony classes due to fixed height. Great place and wish the new vision show was still going!

I have never been hunting on a surface I have to say - perhaps WHP people can start a new trend!!!
