Area: Devon & Cornwall
Meeting(s): Dulverton West - Sunday, 20 May 2012; Exmoor - Saturday, 02 June 2012; Tiverton Staghounds - Sunday, 10 June 2012
Course Summary: Undulating course on side of hill; sharp turns into and out of home straight; long uphill finish and results of many races change after last fence; going usually good (despite late season dates) on old moorland turf; fences now more substantial and well built. Plenty of parking space and has a large paddock. Over 1000 feet above sea level with grand view of Exmoor, but grazed by sheep with resulting hazards for unsuspecting racegoers and falling riders.
Top Riders: R. Woollacott 8, D. Edwards 7, Miss R. Green* 6, Miss P. Gundry 5
