Come out to see the horses and dogs at an official fox hunt!

Don’t worry – this is a drag hunt! No foxes will be harmed at the Stirrup Cup.

How does drag hunting differ from fox hunting?

In drag hunting, a pack of hounds follows a scent laid by a human rather than pursuing a live animal. The line is laid over a pre-determined route to take advantage of the best jumping opportunities.

What can we expect from a day’s hunting?

The meet starts at 8:00am – the dogs are horses arrive at 7:30am. Hollow Oak will offer drinks and snacks.

The hounds will then move off and when they pick up the scent and start to run, the rest of the group follows!
