The blog is back with an AGA double header at High Easter and Hackwood Park

Why the lack of blog posts? Well, I’ve missed a few weeks due to being incredibly busy, and there have also been a few ‘technical issues’. I fully intended to catch up and write a blog post for every point-to-point meeting that I’ve been to since my last post – Didmarton, Garthorpe, Charlton Horethorne, Wadebridge, […]

Bryony Frost delivers Aikideau right on the line at Badbury Rings to win her first ever AGA race

An overnight stay in sunny (yes, I really did say sunny) Bournemouth preceded our visit to Badbury Rings for the seventh AGA Ladies Open race of the season, although the sun didn’t last and Sunday was rather gloomy. Having said that we had a tremendous day and for the second time this season Mrs S […]

AGA owners championship takes centre stage at a wet and wild Larkhill

What do we do on a weekend if our AGA qualifier is postponed? That’s easy, we support our championship for owners and go pointing somewhere else! We actually had a plan A, B & C this weekend, and it was plan C – Larkhill – that won the day (heavily influenced by the weather). We […]

Leanda Tickle is the latest new name on the AGA championship leader board as the sun shines at Black Forest Lodge

The AGA series has had a flying start so losing Horseheath was a real blow, and it left us looking at a weekend without an AGA ladies open race. That was not an option so a replacement was sought and an additional fixture in the Devon & Cornwall area was added, with the Mid Devon at […]

The Jedforest give us a day to remember at Friars Haugh as the AGA UK point-to-point tour reaches Bonnie Scotland

What a weekend! Our longest drive of the season was rewarded with an incredibly warm welcome and a fabulous days racing as the Northern area did us proud for the second week running. There was another well supported and competitive AGA ladies open race for us to enjoy, and we now have a genuine title […]

Rain and mud at Alnwick but there are smiles all round as we enjoy another AGA cracker

The north-east weather men had promised us sunshine by the time the first race was under way, but instead we had rain, mist, more rain, black and grey clouds and loads of mud, with the sun finally appearing as we started our journey home! But that didn’t matter, and it all just added to the […]

Huge point-to-point crowd in Yorkshire as AGA visit Easterby country, with more AGA hats and a special guest appearance from Channel 4 Racing man, Nick Luck!

Frosty morning, warm Yorkshire welcome, great racing, nice people, the return of Amicelli, impressive AGA ladies winner, an AGA ladies title challenger from the north-east, Channel 4 Racing man in attendance, and lots of Easterby’s wearing AGA hats – that pretty much sums up a great day at Sheriff Hutton! Towards the end of the […]

Another AGA cracker at Larkhill as rising star Megan Nicholls puts in a sparkling performance on Gwanako

I admit it, when the alarm went off at 6am on Sunday morning I struggled, and for a few brief moments I really did not want to get out of bed. It didn’t help that my trusty sidekick stayed firmly under the duvet – she was put off by the forecast of torrential rain at […]

Look out Yorkshire, Claire Hart and Palypso De Creek are coming to get you!

This is a direct quote from my post race blog 12 months ago: ‘Not many people beat Amicelli in his own back yard and after Harty won the race on Palypso De Creek it looks like she is now going to be banned from travelling north of Derby until further notice!’. What was the reason for that statement? Because Claire […]
