Producing an astonishingly fast round, local rider Sue Hendry from Inveruire, Aberdeenshire was the stand out winner from the twelve horse jump off. Riding her 20-year-old tobiano gelding, Tomahawk, the determination of this pair was obvious as they navigated the tight turns to cross the finish line in a truly unbeatable time of 40.66 seconds.
Second place was scooped up by Estelle Bain from near Ellon, Aberdeenshire on board Chiricahua, a seven-year-old skewbald mare owned by Faye Jamieson. This pair kept their composure to deliver a double clear in 51.77 seconds.
Jumping in to third place was Lucy O‘Neill from Newmarchar, Aberdeen with Wendy O’Neill’s eight-year-old chestnut gelding, Estoril. This combination produced their double clear in 53.22 seconds.
