Gipping Riding Society kindly hosted the Introductory Area dressage qualifier on the 1st. and 2nd Feb at Topthorn Arena.
Five High Fen members competed.
Louise Towers and Zanna Saville rode to Music on Saturday with success . Louise came 1st. in the Medium and Adv Medium with Zanna winning the Elementary.
Competing on Sunday were Nicola Manders, Lucy Haycock and Emma Green, all riders were pleased with their horses. Emma was 1st. and Lucy was placed 3rd. in the Prelim 1 .
A new horse for Nicola and their first competition together but sadly not in the rosettes today but lots to look forward to.
Attention all members: Starting from January 2025, there will be changes to our Area 14 Qualifier and National Championship subsidised entry payments.
Qualifiers: We will cover the preliminary entry fees for qualifiers, while riders will be responsible for paying the usual entry fee to the organising club.
Championships: We will pay for 100% of the championship entry, but please note that riders will need to cover their own stabling and transport costs.
