Surry P&R
Seren had a 4 turn stairstep, each leg 50 yd, aged 4 hours. Double laid. She had a nice start but got into a patch of sand spurs near the 1st turn, which dampened her enthusiasm some. She recovered nicely once I got her feet de-burred. Overshot most turns, but I felt like I was easily reading her LOS. Increased tension on the line did not deter her when she was on the actual track, but did discourage going in the wrong direction. Did not miss any food drops😄, did ignore the crayfish towers (which appeared abandoned). Overall, I was pleased
Dylan had a 2 turn track with slightly acute hangman’s turns. Turns were flagged & there was also an extraneous flag on the field, probably left from the last time we were here. He did notice the extra flag, but decided it wasn’t relevant. He did a good job of figuring out the turns & I got more practice handling the new line material. Good session.


Yay, Betty & Dylan with their TD! So pleased for you both :). This looked good, Betty! Loved seeing him problem solve those turns and the joy you got to have with this track! I'd maybe have used some reinforcement placed similarly from the turn as your first food drop on leg 2 (maybe not two food drops but at least one to reward the second difficult ask). Him doing it successfully doesn't mean it was easy :)...
