Wednesday 28 September 2016
Sixty-five competitors started out across the Dodson & Horrell 1.05m and 1.10m National Amateur Second Rounds at Arena UK in Grantham, Lincolnshire and the classes proved to be a great spectacle as the healthy competition played out.
Qualification for the Dodson & Horrell National Amateur Championships held at Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool during the 16th – 20th November was at the forefront of everyone’s minds.

Fifty-one combinations battled it out in this second round and following round one, an exciting twenty-seven horse jump off played out and a total of eight double clears were achieved.
The win was taken by Tagatha Payne from Welwyn, Hertfordshire and she set a blistering pace in the jump off on board her own 11 year-old dark bay mare The Maharanee. The pair delivered their double clear in just 29.62 seconds and this ultra-quick time proved to be unbeatable.
Natasha Hawkins from Aylesford, Kent took second with Guhne Van Het Keizershof, a 10 year-old bay mare owned by Kits Coty Stud. This combination produced their accurate double clear in just 30.08 seconds.
The top three was rounded out by Angela Mills from Haswell, County Durham and she secured this result on her own 12 year-old bay gelding Quids In II. A double clear in 30.79 seconds also ensured this combination of a qualification place.

Kerrie Goodwin from St. Albans, Hertfordshire topped this second round on her own 20 year-old chestnut gelding Roscoes Golani and they took advantage of being the last to go in the jump off. Having seen just a single double clear produced before her, Kerrie knew that a quick and clean round would give her the win and she achieved just when she came through the finish with all fences still standing in 33.93 seconds.
Second place went to Allie Ellison from Cambridge with Sacha Ellison’s 7 year-old bay mare Elsalinda S. This combination delivered the only other double clear of the class in 39.23 seconds.
Third place was taken by Elise Pilbeam from Swanley, Kent and she rode Euribor, a 7 year-old chestnut gelding owned by Gary Pilbeam. Elise and Euribor had an unfortunate pole at the first fence of the jump off to finish with 4 faults in 36.93 seconds.
