Horse Talk

This week's Horse Talk. Picture: ON FILE

By Anita Prowse

The Upper Yarra Pony Club had a very enjoyable afternoon on Sunday with the Upper Yarra Pony Club Formal and Disco.

Lots of dancing, some twister, hide and seek and a pinata that was not too keen on letting its lollies out.

This coming weekend, the club has two days of HRCAV Dressage with Advanced, Level 1 and Level 2 competing on Saturday, and Level 3, 4,5 and walk/trot tests on Sunday. Quite a lot of entries so will also be a great weekend for spectators as well.

The canteen will be running and a coffee van on-site from early Sunday morning.

Saturday 4 November is the final Freshmans for UYPC this year, starting at 10am and 45cms, height increasing every hour depending on demand.

All focus will then be on the Yarra Valley Horse Show on Sunday 10 December.

Pre-entries are now open at Event Secretary and are offered at a largely discounted rate as opposed to Entries on the Day. We need lots of support for local equestrian events so we can keep bringing them to you all.

Soon will again be time to renew Club membership, and again we urge you to support your local clubs as without them, you will have no competitions or clinics. So please consider what your decision on memberships will be if you want to continue to have events to go to.
