DODSON & HORRELL 1.05M AND 1.10M NATIONAL AMATEUR SECOND ROUNDS AT MUIRMILL EQUESTRIAN CENTRE

A determined set of competitors gathered at Muirmill Equestrian Centre in Kilmarnock, Ayrshire for their final chance to secure a qualification place from the last Dodson & Horrell 1.05m and 1.10m National Amateur Second Rounds of this year.

Qualification for the Dodson & Horrell National Amateur Championships, held at Aintree Equestrian Centre in Liverpool during the 16th – 20th November, was the aim of each and every competitor which lead to a brilliant competition.

From a strong class, eight hardy combinations produced a first round clear to secure their place in the final jump off and with qualification assured, it was just the all-important placings left to be decided.

As the jump off was reaching its conclusion, Aimee Gardiner from Haddington, East Lothian was able to pick up the pace on board her 13 year-old bay gelding, Kilhalle, and she crossed the finish line in first place with a double clear in 33.67 seconds.

Kirsty Thomson made the journey from Glasgow worthwhile when she slipped into second place on her own 12 year-old bay gelding, Foxy Brown II. This pair posted a double clear in 34.25 seconds.

Third place was scooped up by Annabelle Brown from Downan Hill, Glasgow riding Her L’Amour, a 9 year-old bay gelding owned by Tracey Brown. This partnership produced their double clear in 35.02 seconds.
