The longest day of the year whizzed by at the Laurel View Dressage competition, the second competition in the Summer league.  Not that the weather felt particularly “summery!”

 

Walk/trot competitors benefited from Lucy Webbs appraising judgement for their BD Intro A tests. Gerri Harron Andrews took the first place spot on Rock Steady Teddy. Simon Wylie and Schumi rode a super test to claim second.

 

Debbie Osborough proved a very encouraging Newcomers judge.  The best Prelim 4 test was ridden by Olivia Courtney on Rossi, with the second place rosette going to Holly Reilly and Just Jake.

Sarah Sproule and Casper stepped their way to the top of the Prelim 12 class judged by Martina McKinley. Rock Black and Blue ridden by Barbara Hannah took home the blue rosette.

 

Class 4 judged by Will McAuley was won by Oakhill Charm and Jennifer McCann, while Sarah Sproule and River Diamond Rebel just missed out on the red rosette.

 

Linda McIlwaine and Beechmount Baxter were Will McAuleys Class 5, Novice 28 winners, with Elaine Williams and Emerald earning the runners up spot.

Lucy Webb judged a wide variety of classes on the day from walk/trot to medium. It was Lynne Robinson and Alfies Elementary test that was awarded the top score in the Open, with Beechmount Baxter and Linda McIlwaine taking home the blue ribbon for their novice test.

 

Braving the widely varying elements to capture as many of the competitors as possible was the Equi-tog photographer, as ever photos taken can be viewed by emailing info@equi-tog.com
