Southern Highlands Endurance Ride Inc organised a Pony Club endurance training day in conjunction with Moss Vale Pony Club. The event was held in superb Autumn weather at New-Moon Stud, and included a morning theory session with talks on endurance rules, equipment, vetting and course and vet ring etiquette, and a demonstration of a vet check. This was followed by a parade line-up for gear check and vet checks, before the pony clubbers headed out on an 11km marked course. Upon return riders were assisted with strapping, and then each horse was checked by our regular Head Vet Karim Kooros from Retford Equine Veterinary Clinic. The day finished with a final session to answer questions, and learn where to find information about upcoming endurance events, and how to enter.
