The Junior
SJ team make the long haul to Hartpury over the weekend
of 14th/15th April. There were 28 teams competing in the
Junior Championship. Unfortunately for our team, they
did not qualify for the second and final round but
thoroughly enjoyed the experience of competing against
some experienced teams from all over the UK. Elizabeth
Barnes on Paddy jumped a fantastic clear round for the
team and even the commentator said "What a copybook
combination".
There will be another opportunity for the juniors to
compete at the summer qualifier in June. Do contact
Rachael Mackie (or Mary Cloake) if you need more
information.

Sophie Paddock with A Bit More Jazz, Tija Cowie with
Tobias and Elizabeth Barnes with Paddy - members of the
Junior Aspley Guise Team at the Area 7 SJ qualifier at
The College, Keysoe on Sunday 18th February.
The
team came second after a nail biting finish which saw
three clubs battle it out for first and second place to
go through to the National Riding Club Show
Jumping Final on 14th/15th April at Hartpury College,
Gloucestershire. Three teams had jumped double clears
so there was a third round against the clock.
Rockingham Forest Conkers Team clinched first place with
Aspley Guise a close second.
The
senior team ended up in 4th place after ending on only 7
faults for the 2 rounds. Not enough to qualify but a
great result none the less.
Full
report coming soon.
