Anglesey Winter League Show Jumping – Report

We had a long but very successful day at the first Winter League Show Jumping in Anglesey on Saturday. The weather was windy and cold but the Flint & Denbigh teams were prepared and ready for action, coming home with top spots in two out of three of the competitions.

Class 1, and we had 2 teams in the 10 & under. The Winter League team of Leah Jones, Scarlett Owen, Twm Cernyw & Emily McParland rode very correct in the first round, and then picked up speed for the second round, not only coming home with 1st for the team, but Emily McParland gaining individual 1st and Leah Jones gaining individual 2nd. Our second team of Orlagh Toner, Amelia Clemence & Eben Davies also rode very well, gaining team 4th, and Orlagh Toner individual 6th.

Class 2, and after a slight delay before starting, our Winter League team of Lois Williama, Sali Wyn-Wheway, Efa Davies & Beatrice Blockley also came up trumps, gaining team 1st.  Again picking up speed for the second round Beatrice gained individual 2nd, Sali individual 3rd and Lois individual 4th. Our second team of Georgie Elvin, Hermione Williams & Beatrice Blockley all rode well, and Hermione came home with individual 1st , meaning that the Flint & Denbigh riders between them had individual 1st , 2nd, 3rd & 4th!

Class 3, which was later on than anticipated, and our  team of Lilly Ann Pardoe, Ben Read, Mary Jane Braughton & Harriet Williams were down to 3 members to deliver after Lilly & Harry had a nasty fall and had to withdraw (both are now sore but fine!). The team still managed to deliver, with team 3rd, and Mary Jane Braughton showing all how it was done, gaining individual 1st.

There was a bit of confusion when presenting prizes in class 2, and I would like to thank all the Flint & Denbigh riders for being honest and mature while this was dealt with, I was very proud of you all.

Thank you Maggie & Penny for keeping scores in class 2 and 3, and to all parents for their help on the day.
