Area Dressage Qualifier – July 11th

Posted on July 20, 2015 | in Results

Our only team consisting of Hannah Barnett, Ashley Daniel, Charlotte Edmunds and Juliet Foden – all riding mares! –rode a new BRC test at Preliminary level. We came 2nd with 10 points to Bradley Dale with 6 points. Unfortunately, I don’t think we qualified as there were not enough teams.
Hannah was 1st in her arena, so hopefully has qualified for the Championships at Lincoln in September. Also she was our only competitor in the Riding Test, coming 2nd.
Ashley Daniel was 7th on our area, but because of the complicated scoring method, was 5th for team placings. Juliet was 5th in her area, but 4th for the team points. Charlotte was 9th in the final arena.
Brook Howells was the only individual in the Open section Elementary and came 3rd.

Area Horse Trials – well done team ECCTG!

Posted on June 22, 2015 | in News

ECCTG continued their great form in the area horse trials yesterday with one individual and one team qualifying for the championships.

Our sole representative in the 80 – Juliet Foden – made a good start to the day but sadly Molly didn’t enjoy the show jumping so Juliet chose not to run cross country.

The 90 Team of Hannah Barnett, Ki Ashmore, Libby Richards and Sue O’Leary hit rocky waters before the competition had even begun when Sue took a tumble during her last practice session (get well soon Sue!), and Ki’s horse took an uncharacteristic dislike to the solid fences, but Libby’s double clear earned her third place and Hannah’s personal best score of 21 with just a smattering of time penalties to add earned her a place at the championships. Well done Hannah!

In the 100 class, individual rider Ashley Daniel put in a great effort to finish on her dressage score and come away with an 8th rosette.

Our open team of Abi and Alison Unwin, Sophie Jones and Nicki Toomer stormed to victory with individual placings too for Nicki (2nd), Abi (4th) and Sophie (7th). Alison sadly got eliminated on the cross country, but after breaking down on a roundabout on the way there, she was  probably pleased just to have made it to the start line!!

Well done and thank you to everyone who took part, and thank you to all the volunteers too. Before the day was out we received a lovely email from the Area organisers complimenting us on our friendly, willing volunteers, who were a real credit to the club. Onwards to the championships!!
