Land Rover Burghley Horse Trials - Pony Club Showjumping

Warwickshire prove the Pony Club to beat

The Warwickshire branch set such an unbeatable target in the SSG Pony Club Team Jumping competition at Burghley today that there was, unusually, no need for a jump-off.

The team’s final score was just four faults, with two clear rounds from 13-year-old Gemma Watts riding Renkum Bombadier and Jess Hope on the mare Ballymore Bouncer. Grace Hopkins and Bolgerstown Belle only hit one rail and Gee Holland was the discount score on Montague Rose.

The Belvoir had the joint fastest times – a combined score of 226.12sec - of the four teams tied on eight faults and finished second. The Grove third was third on 230.37sec, the South Trent, who only had three riders, in fourth on 240.63sec and the Blankney in fifth on 249.20sec.
