Last weekend, we hosted the British Championships at Connegar Farm which was also a world ranking event. We were delighted to welcome international judges from Germany, Iceland, Switzerland and the UK.

Mike rode some excellent pace tests and speed pace tests on Kafteinn and Hafeti, and a very nice five gait program on Kafteinn. He also won the preliminary on Svala in the T1. It was Elizabeth’s debut with Komma in the T2 who did a nice test. Jemimah rode the two new stallions in the V1, and lead the preliminaries. She also rode Fjolnir and Dogun in Intermediate classes as well as Stapi and Draupnir in the T2. Draupnir did a great test and got some great marks up to 7.5 for the loose rein section in the final.

We were very happy with all our horses and it was great to see the Youth and Adult riders doing so well.

Also during the weekend, one of the judges’ daughters got to ride Sokkull ‘just for fun!’.
