I need a hint on what the theme is. is it a British theme?

Grid is complete and I have stared at it but nothing jumps out.

[Neveracrossword]

'Jumping' is a good word, Hankir. It's very British, it's something that took place yesterday (and last April and the one before that and the one before...)

[hankir]

Thanks NAC.
It seems like showjumping of horses. So far Google has not revealed much.
The course may have names for each obstacle?

[Neveracrossword]

Yes, you're on the right track, but not showjumping - just racing. You're correct about names for the obstacles.

[hankir]

Not finding much.

Will give it a rest for a while.

Annual race in Liverpool. World famous.

[hankir]

Thanks cashier.
I am not into racing so was unaware.

But I did find four that begin with F, B, C and V. I think the one that begins with C is at right angle.

I looked at the course and could not figure out the color to be used.

[ProfessorMaisie]

In green, hankir.
The 5th also begins with 'C' ('The C????').

[hankir]

Thanks ProfessorM
