We’re very pleased to confirm we have 9 Race Days this year and it is looking rather positive that there may be a 10th soon to be available. This is in line with the Pony Racing Pathway progression Charles and I shared in our summer update last year.
The first Race Day is early April, we have 4 race days currently accepting entries. The two new ones to note are Bangnor on Dee and Milborne St Andrews.
If you have members who would be interested in taking part in Pony Racing they can find out more about the Days:

- a minimum of 2 Qualifying Rallies/Coaching/Training Sessions as per The Pony Club Handbook or
- a minimum of 1 (passed) PRA/PC Training Day

I very much appreciate your help and support o far with encouraging centres and branches to give racing a try and wondered if you might share that entries are open with DCs/ Centres and via your social media please?
