Youth Nations Cup Finals, Sentower Park

We were delighted to find out that Atiya & Chesterfield Z were set to represent Great Britain on the Children On Horses Nations Cup team for the 4th time this year, this time at Sentower Park in Belgium for the big Nations Cup Finals for Youth.

The pair jumped a super clear on day one, helping Team GB to qualify for the prestigious final on Sunday. Friday was the individual competition where they once again jumped double clear & finished in 7th place – a fantastic result. They finished the week with another class round around a technical 1m30 track, unfortunately just touching the last fence for 4 faults. Never-the-less they provided the best score across the board for Team GB helping the team to achieve 5th place in the Finals.

That marks the end of Atiya & Chester’s Children On Horses campaign, but what a year it has been!

Lamprechtshausen Nations Cup Show

We were delighted when Atiya was selected to represent Great Britain for the first time after a fabulous performance at the European Viewing Trials at Chepstow CSI**.

Atiya jumped two fantastic rounds in the Children On Horses Nations Cup aboard Chesterfield Z to help Team GB secure 2nd place convincingly. Atiya also won the opening Children On Horses class in fine style riding Westwinds Ego.

India also competed in Lamprechtshausen having had the call up to ride individually on her relatively inexperienced 7 year old Goldenboy. The week was a fantastic experience for both of India’s 7 year old horses (Goldenboy & Billy Colman) of whom she has produced herself here at Wodehouse Stud, and she picked up some very good placings in the Juniors (U18) classes.
