Not satisfied with a team win at last week’s Combined Training Qualifier, Tracey Bourne and Bob pulled off an Individual Win in the Area 6 80cm Horse Trials Qualifier today at Munstead. The pair scored fab 29.3 dressage and were in second place after a clear round in the show jumping. They stormed round the XC, to finish inside the time (the only pair to do so) and take the overall win.

They qualify for the National Championships at Swalcliffe in August.

Big thanks to Tessa Baylis (and Vic!) for being our volunteers for the event.
