Nomads Club Trial – Round 1 of 2026 Championship – Pickling Yards, Mortimer – RESULTS


Many thanks to everyone that attended our charity CTC Trial on Saturday and for the generous donations of prizes- particularly from Bidfood Reading depot,& for supporting the Raffle & BBQ contributions. We will be donating £200 to Englefields chosen charity – SAFE, a local(ish) horse charity protecting abandoned horses. https://www.safe-horses.co.uk

The results suggest that all 3 routes provided a fair & safe competition for all levels of ability, for which we again thank Reynard & Dave Barrett for setting out and clearing on Sunday. Thanks also to club Admin & Catering Team – which seemed to comprise of most of the extended Haines family!
