Please go to davidseverywhere.wordpress.com where you will find lots of old posts from the AGA Pointing days plus photos and updates from Gina and Tom Ellis Racing (where David now works). There will also be plenty of words (and pics) about point-to-point horse racing.

Jumping is the name of the game and there are 100's of AGA fences still to jump!

I've taken advantage of this period of inactivity and scrutinised the results for all of the meetings that have staged an AGA sponsored qualifier or an AGA Total Control Lady Riders' Championship race this season, and I can now bring you an updated table. There are 60 lady riders who have a score from the 11 races to date, but in order to avoid the longest blog post ever I have only posted a top 10 ... plus I want to ensure you all remain slightly curious!
The top 10 - look at Claire!
There will be a fantastic prize for the winner and with 39 races still to go it's all to play for! We're also in discussion with our pals at the PPA about a few more great ideas that will make our sponsorship of the Ladies Open Point-to-Point Championship even more exciting, and we should be able to announce details by the end of next week. Remember to follow us on twitter @AGAPointing for pointing updates and news - I do like a tweet, and don't forget #AGAlovespointing.

AGA Point-to-Point sponsorship v. Jack Frost (he's starting to get on our nerves)

Everything is crossed that we get some pointing action this weekend and all AGA eyes are on the weather forecast for Milborne St Andrew. Think of a horse that is absolutely trained to the minute and needs a run, well that's the AGA van and we need to get it onto a course! (and that also applies to the AGA Pointing team).

New twist to AGA Ladies Open Point-to-Point Championship - who's jumped the most fences?

In our attempt to raise the sponsorship bar even further we have been busy brainstorming some new ideas at AGA HQ, and over the next couple of weeks we will be adding a new twist to the AGA Ladies Open Championship by announcing some exciting new initiatives. 
Exciting times ahead
