Our Level 4 team of Alice White(Finn), Biz Dance(Cookie), Alasdair Matthews(Tikka) and Rhia Honey(Finnegan) had a brilliant day at the Chiddingfold Farmers One Day Event held round the Stilemans Course. Biz had a super dressage of 26!, Alice and Alasdair also had good scores to put them well up in their sections and Rhia did well with only 10 mins to warm up. Biz and Alasdair show-jumped clear, Alice and Rhia just one down. They all had fluent and clear Cross country rounds, Alasdair finished 2nd, Biz 4th and the team 3rd. The team result was really close with over 20 teams competing. Georgina Carlisle put up a very good performance in the Open class riding Little Bear, a 7th place is a promising start to the summer after a long break for exams.......Well done!
