HOUNDS OF THE CHRISTCHURCH HUNT SHOWED GOOD SPORT TO FOLLOWERS for the opening meet at Aylesbury on Saturday, when a fair scent made for some fast runs and few checks. TOP LEFT: Mrs S. Hart on Harmony leaps a rough gorse fence. TOP RIGHT. Three juniors on their ponies enjoy the day out. They are Clare Biggs on Tacoma (left), Prudence McGowan on Savanna (middie), and Alison Bedford on Kittywake (right). BOTTOM LEFT: The day was hot and the ground was hard, so the two riders in the foreground give their mounts a breather, while stragglers behind press on to catch up with the field. BOTTOM RIGHT: Tired hounds have a brief respite, after a gruelling chase which ended in a kill.
