ECRC  Fun Team Show Jumping 

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.

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

The Area 19 Indoor Show Jumping Qualifying Competition was held at the Duchy College, Callington on Sunday March 16th. 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 Team Dressage

The Area 19 Team Dressage competition was held on Sunday 3rd Feb at Duchy College. This event was hosted by East Cornwall Riding Club. We sent two teams out of a total of 22 teams. Each team was made up of two horses doing a prelim test and two horses doing a novice test. (P12 and N27) The best three scores to count. South Devon RC were the eventual winners followed by Holsworthy. West Devon  came 3rd  This team was Julie Vernon riding Manwell, Jenny Radmore riding Double Take, Karen Penry riding Maverick and Sandra Jones riding Kings Cadet. Our second team finished in 13th place. This team was Mat Taylor riding Jackson, Sally Roberts riding Buster, Lucy Luscombe riding Perfect Scoundrel and Sandra Jones riding Diamond Houdini.

Fun Team Show Jumping

This event was held at Cholwell on Sunday 20th January. 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.
