Pippa and Millie Allen Win Trade Award

Wednesday 02 March 2011

Sponsored riders Pippa and Millie Allen have added the coveted British Equestrian Trade Association (BETA) Sponsored Rider of the Year Award to their collection of trophies.

The British Showjumping sisters were presented with their prize at the BETA Gala Dinner on Monday 21 February by Tim Smith of TSM Marketing, who sponsors the award.

Seventeen-year-old Pippa and Millie, who's 13, fought off top-class competition from the likes of Matt Ryan, Andrew Gould and Beverley Brightman to clinch the prize for the riders who have made the greatest contribution to the trade.

The judges said that the girls were a credit to their sponsors, the equestrian industry and showjumping. When we saw the shortlist of such famous names, we didn't think we stood a chance. We were really surprised to hear our names called out!

Mountain Horse is proud and delighted to sponsor such talented, enthusiastic and committed riders. "Pippa and Millie really go that extra mile for Mountain Horse, they really deserve this recognition," explains Lucy Ward, managing director of Mountain Horse UK. "They love our products and work so hard to promote us whenever they can. The sisters are excellent ambassadors for our brand and great models for our catalogue. We look forward to many more years working together."
