West Devon Riding Club Past Events 2008 AGM 19/11/08 at the White Thorn. Dressage Championships at Lincoln Sarah Chalmers qualified and was placed with Tayhem Amanda. Area 19 Dressage This event was held on Sunday 3rd August at St Leonards by kind permission of Catherine and Andy Reeves. Unfortunately it was a wet day and the ground conditions did not help riders to show their horses at their best. Sarah Chalmers rode Tayhem Amanda to 4th place in the Junior section. Seniors representing West Devon were Suzi Maxfield, Adele Colton and Cherie Holmes. I do not yet have any results for the seniors. Summer Show with Dressage and Dog Show
The Summer Show was another successful day. For the first time we held Dressage
classes at Prelim and Novice levels. Two lovely trophies were donated by the
Wassell Family of Whittaborough and the Radmore Family from Sheepstor. The
dressage was judged by Sandra Jones of Horrabridge and was so popular that we
had to close the entries and start a waiting list! We hope
to have two arenas next year. The show jumping was busy both in the main ring and in the clear round ring.
This year we reduced the number of serious show classes and concentrated on the
fun classes which were more popular last year. This seemed to work well and our
judge, Carolyn Kingwell had many difficult choices to make.
The dog show was judged by Mr Jim Dawe from Plymouth.

WDRC Home About the club Future Program Past Events Sponsors Latest News Evening Show Jumping The first five Evening Show Jumping sessions at Shaugh Prior have been well attended. The ground has been really good. We are grateful to Helen and Roy Radmore for keeping their stock away from the jumps. This has saved us having to set up the course every week and has also looked after the surface. Several people have brought their youngsters for schooling and more experienced horses are just having fun or practicing over a bigger height than usual. We look forward to seeing you all again at the last one on Thursday 10th July at 6.30pm WDRC Home About the club Future Program Past Events Sponsors Spring Jumping Show at Medlands This was a great day.

Our Junior Team were the only team to finish with no penalties and they qualified for the finals at Hartpury College in Gloucester without even having to jump off against the clock. Could someone please email me full details of the team and also how the trip to Hartpury went. We weren't placed but I gather everyone had a great time and would like to qualify again next year. Two senior teams took part in the qualifiers.
The red team were in 10th place after the first round with a score of
4 faults. The second round was much more difficult and we added just 4 more
faults to our score. Several of the teams ahead of us had problems in round 2
and dropped down the places. East
Cornwall were the eventual winners with a grand total of 4 faults over both
rounds. They were followed by Tavy Valley and then West Devon in third place.
Individual 1st went to Laura Morton on Jupiter, individual 3rd
went to Sally Roberts on Buster. Other team members were Jenny Radmore on Bella
and Adele Colton riding Shaugh Lady. Area 19

Eighteen teams took part. The first round was over a fairly twisting course. There were many clear rounds and several teams completed with a zero score. Round two proved much more difficult. The fences were up to size with more fillers and this round was also timed. Many of those clear in the first round made mistakes and only two teams finished with a zero score. These two teams jumped off against the clock. All riders jumping a double clear jumped off as individuals so there were plenty of rosettes to be presented. It was a great competition and we were made very welcome by the friendly staff at Cholwell. Thank you to those members who turned up to support the club and helped with the organising of the teams and collecting ring.
