Saturday 21 February 2015 saw the second in our Jump Cross Series.  We had a fantastic turnout for all classes with once again lots of new faces.  There was also a high number of expertly turned out horse and rider combinations vying for the Best Turned Out Prize.  The course was a testing one for both horse and rider.

The day commenced with the 60/70 cm class and it was Adele Huddleson riding Hot Stuff who took the Red Rosette.  Nanette Glover riding Danzig Belle took second, Karen Connolly riding Bonnie took third position and Shannon Carruthers riding Foxy Roxy took fourth place.  A very dapper Karina McVeigh riding Midnight Reflection took the Best Turned Out prize.
