The foxhounds met up the road this morning and by the middle of the day they were hunting round and round Rockley :-) Its always lovely to hear them even if I am not on horseback.
Charlie, Dexter and Felix were a little bit miffed not to be in the thick of it but they and the rehab horses all enjoyed the chance to watch the action from the track.

Hounds coming through is just like widescreen tv for our horses - they don't gallop about, they just put their feet up and enjoy watching someone else doing the work. I am delighted, because the rehab horses are just where they should be - stomping on the pea gravel track and getting the best possible movement.
Of course, Paddy (who is on box rest) and Zan (who was keeping him company today) had to stay in the barn but so they didn't realise they were missing out, they had Radio 2 on very loud with Satus Quo to drown out the bitches...
Teehee, that is a GREAT picture with them all standing at the fenceline... staring. Too cute!
