Friday 09 October 2015
Holmside Hall in Durham, County Durham was the venue for two Dodson & Horrell National Amateur Second Rounds last Sunday. The venue saw competitors come forward for the chance of claiming one of the direct qualification tickets on offer for the Dodson & Horrell National Amateur Championships which will take place at Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool next month (18th – 22nd November).
Dodson & Horrell 0.95m National Amateur Second Round
Six combinations produced a first round clear to go through to the jump off where the course saw faults accrued all over. Just two combinations were able to produce a second foot round to go home with a double and it was Amy Lawrence from Richmond, North Yorkshire who led the jump off from the start.
Amy rode her own 12 year-old chestnut mare Top Less and they were the only combination to break the 40 seconds barrier with a double clear. They recorded a time of 39.63 seconds to take the top spot.
Seventeen year-old Estella Harrowing from Whitby, North Yorkshire finished in second place with her mother Wendy’s 8 year-old piebald gelding Dereks Choice. This pair provided their double clear in 53.43 seconds.
Third place went to 14 year-old Leah Harrison from Washington, Tyne and Wear and she was on board Janice Swailes’ 11 year-old bay mare Lux Jazzy. They picked up four faults at the midway point of the jump off, but crossed through the finish line in 38.83 seconds.
