Bicton Arena in Salterton, Devon held the weekend’s Equitop Myoplast Senior Foxhunter Second Round and it was won in fine style by Joseph Fernyhough.
With two direct qualifying tickets on offer for the Equitop Myoplast Senior Foxhunter Championship Final at Horse of the Year Show in October, each of the forty-eight starters had their sights set on producing a treble clear. The challenges of the first two rounds saw competitor numbers dwindle until just thirteen remained to battle the final jump off.
Making the journey from Stonehouse in Gloucestershire, Joseph rode three stylish rounds on board Rowland Fernyhough’s 8 year-old brown gelding, Calcourt Quicktime to scoop first place. Proving their consistency in the first two rounds, this pair kicked on to cross the finish line of the jump off in just 39.19 seconds and took one of only two treble clears of the class.
With the top two taking the direct qualifying tickets for the Equitop Myoplast Senior Foxhunter Championship Final, the combinations in third to fifth took home the chance to compete at the British Showjumping National Championships.
