Rosie Alcorn and “Fiorella” are in fine form winning the Open Class.

Sunday 14th July a glorious sunny day for the third leg of the Laurel View Summer Dressage League.  For the second occasion in the league competitors were permitted to dispense with their jackets to stop them from getting hot under the collar.

The competition as well as the temperature was hot in the indoor arena.  Kelly Kerr judged the BD Intro B test and when the scores were totted up Therese Ritson and Scottie emerged as the winners with Lucy Telford on Ollie in second place.

Kelly was also tasked with scoring the Newcomer class and riding Prelim 7 best on the day was Sheryl McBride and Orage Sauvage.  Kenzi Potter and Drummena Hill earned the blue rosette for the newcomer class.

In Class 4 "Joshi J" and Amy Neill pick up their first red rosette together.

Looking over the talent trotting out in Class 3 was Laurel Faloona whose marking of  Prelim 13 resulted in Sylvia Henry and Mossbrook Ferrelle winning the red rosette. Second prize was awarded to Jamaica and Vicky Slater.

Class 4 competitors rode Prelim 18 in front of Jenny and Billy Hill and taking the top spot after the marks were collated was Amy Neill and Joshi J.  The runner up position went to Kristine Lynch on Laurel Hill Evie.

Novice 30 was the test to test Class 5 competitors under the expert eye of Angelene Nicholson, highest points on the day went to Tifftarney Clyde ridden by Wendy Forsythe, with a second going to Cherryhill Rose and Jenny Hill.

The Open class scoresheets from Angelene were the last of the day to be calculated and it soon became clear that Rosie Alcorn and Fiorella had had a particularly good day at the office, with a first for their Novice test and a second for their Elementary.

Newcomers win goes to Shelley McBride and "Orage Sauvage"

Hopefully exposure to the sunlight did not affect the performance of the Equi-Tog photographer as he captured the competitors in their best light.

August 18th is the next dressage league date which will hopefully see another great crowd at Laurel View trying to better their scores and chances.  For full schedule details and information on all the Laurel View activities and competitions check out www.laurelview.co.uk or if it is your preference give the office a ring on 028 9083 0649.
