All classes except the Field Hunter Hack Pairs class (#1000) and the Hunter Derbies (classes 2000 and 3000) will take place in the sand\rubber arena (new footing this year!). This change is due to the lack of rain this summer, causing the grass jumping field to be harder than usual. The hunter derbies will run according to a revised format - the first portion of the course will take place on the arena footing; the horses will then jump out of the arena to perform the handy portion on the grass over natural obstacles.
