Qualifying them for Dodson & Horrell National Amateur Championships, which take place at Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool during the 18th – 22nd November 2015


Competitors turned out at Tall Trees Arena in Camelford, Cornwall on Saturday with the aim of qualifying for the Dodson & Horrell National Amateur Championships which will take place at Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool next month (18th – 22nd November). The venue hosted two second rounds at the following heights, 0.85m and 1.05m, and each class proved to be well fought out.

Dodson & Horrell 0.85m National Amateur Second Round 

Fifteen year-old Mollie Smith from Cheddar, Somerset made her trip to Tall Trees Arena worthwhile after she fought off stiff competition to take the top spot in a seven horse jump off. With six of the seven combinations going on to produce double clears, all eyes were on the ever crucial clock as this was to be the deciding factor in the allocation of the qualification places. 

Mollie rode her mother Lesley’s 9 year-old bay gelding, Billy Brown to victory after producing the quickest double clear of the class. Mollie and Billy Brown’s time of 31.27 seconds proved good enough to give them not only a 2.5 second lead, but also the winners spoils.

Dominica Rogan-Pfaff, aged 17, from Weston-super-Mare, Somerset took second place on board her own 11 year-old skewbald mare, Another Lady II. They recorded their double clear in a time of 33.80 seconds.

Third place went to Helen Buffin from Weston-super-Mare, Somerset after she produced a double clear on board her own 23 year-old chestnut mare Just Whispa. This combination delivered their double clear in 35.16 seconds.
