Matthew Phelps wins the NAF Five Star Silver League Qualifier at Codham Park Equestrian Centre

Matthew Phelps from Great Dunmow, Essex secured the win in this week’s NAF Five Star Silver League Qualifier held at Codham Park Equestrian Centre, jumping his own 13 year-old chestnut gelding Ulove Des Charmes.

Thirty-two keen combinations set out over the twelve-fence track and after two tough rounds of showjumping just seven remained to contest for first place in the final jump off. With the pressure mounting, John was able to keep his cool and set an unbeatable time of 39.86 seconds, taking top spot with a triple clear.
