Brightling and the Duke does it again with Sarah!
Sarah Elliott owns the Duke of Bartle,and rode him to ninth place at Brightling Horse Trials three years after she began her dream of competing in british eventing horse trials. Sarah is a top level Barrister so she uses Lisa Hamilton to train/coach her and sometimes train her horses to be ready for competitions. Sarah hopes to be taking Bart pre novice next season, Im sure they will do very well.
Jenny Haywood's horse Brendon Hill Sharp Talk was off form at Brightling, one stop show jumping put the end to her chances, even though Lisa rode her around the xc course inside the time as usual. Hard to make the time at Brightling, as a very hilly course with an steep uphill climb at the end.
Next we had Iping. Iping was a successful event for Brendon Hill Sharp Talk, coming 7th in the pre novice, losing an higher placing due to one down show jumping. BHSTalk was far more forward today and I was very pleased with her efforts. Jays Gransun also competed at Iping, he came out of a semi-retirement to contest the OPN, he should have won, but he was so excited in the show jumping, he flattened and had two down, moving him to 5th place after xc.
Coming up we have Mattingley horse trials with Jays Golden Hera and hopefully pre novice with BHSTalk, followed closely by Chilham Aug 3rd, then it will be an august break for al the horses before Firle Place at end of August.
