Point-to-Point fixtures
Monday, 19 December 2011
Point-to-Pointing is amateur horseracing over fences, contested by horses who qualify for the races by learning their skills in the hunting field. Horses running in Point-to-Points must be registered thoroughbreds (except in Hunt Members' races and certain other Club Members' contests).The horses have to obtain a Hunter Certificate from a Master of Foxhounds, stating that they have hunted for at least four days in the season, whilst Riders can only contest Point-to-Points once they have obtained a certificate from the Point-to-Point Authority. The season is currently underway and runs until June 2012, with each Point-to-Point being organised by a hunt. Attending is a great day out and an excellent way to support your local hunt.
