20 - "WEEKEND STAR" More than 180 competitors visit local track By J. Wally Nesbitt From Corner Five There is nothing like a - vintage car festival to make the race fanatic feel his age. Every friggin' minute of it.

'Uxbridge-Scugog Pony Club will travel to Bobcaygeon Pony Club to compete in Central' Ontario Rally this weekend Riders from the local Uxbridge-Scugog and Durham Pony Clubs have entered the Central Ontario Regional A/B/C 'Rally, to be held at Lane's End Farm near Bobcaygeon on Saturday, July 7.

Scoring is done on a penalty points basis, with all errors of course, refusals, rails down and falls counted as penal- ties. Penalties are 'also incurred for taking too much time, or too little, to finish the Cross Casuntry phase. The rider with the fewest penalties wins. ~~ Eventing - or Three-Day Eventing at the upper lev- els - was first developed in the 19th Century as a com- petition for cavalry horses and riders and was once called Combined Military Training. The Dressage phase demonstrates the horse's obedience and con- trol, the Cross Country phase simulates a cavalry charge and the Stadium Jumping phase demon- strates the horse's long- range stamina and fitness. Though the military aspects of the competition no longer apply, rallies and events are still the ultimate test of both horse. and rider. To win at rallies, rid- ers must have first-rate fit- ness themselves and a wide range of riding skills to handle the different demands of the three phases. The "C" in A/B/C Rally refers to the minimum level riders must have passed in the Pony Club testing system in order to enter. The A/B/C Rally offers four divisions: Entry, for riders and horses new to eventing, Pre-Training, Training and Preliminary, with required speeds and the heights of both the cross-country and stadium jumps increasing from level to level. Lane's End is northwest of Bobcaygeon, west on Victoria Road 8 (Duke Street) to the first sideroad out of the village (Conc. 9), then north 3.5 kilometers to Lane's End.
