Equestrian Open Meet at Westover Isle of Wight Foxhounds were very fortunate to once again start their season at Westover Park, where they are always well looked after by John and Caroline Weeks. There was a good crowd of mounted as well as foot followers and it was great to see both old and new faces. The Foxhounds have a new team at the kennels with Keith and Kelly Blaydes and Luke Dowden, who has been given the role of amateur whip for the season. A huge thank you goes to the trail laying team, Kelly Blaydes and Bumble Pike, for laying the trails. The field enjoyed a day jumping rails and hedges and the Foxhounds hope to see them all out again. Pictures by Graham Reading 88 www.visitilife.com
