Hi Everyone,

Its been a busy week for me. As many of you will see the entries are now open and since yesterday we have had a large amount of entries which is great to see. I was delighted to see that we have a number of entries from Wales already and I really look forward to meeting all these new people this year.

Yesterday we had a long but very insightful meeting on the format of the Eventing Discovery. This year we have slightly altered the flatwork display and this new test will be on our website in the coming days. There will also be separate dressage arenas for the 4 and 5 year olds so this should save some time.

On Sunday I stayed home from Charleville to watch the Hickstead Derby and I was thrilled to see Paul Beecher winning the class. The Beecher Family have been coming to Millstreet a very long time and are loyal supporters. It was great to see all Paul’s hard work paying off and hopefully his run of form will continue.

Next week I should have news and photos of the new stables!!
