Ashlea Silk-Jones produces a win in the Nupafeed Supplements Senior Discovery Second Round at Quainton Stud

A strong field of ninety-two starters made their way to Quainton Stud in Buckinghamshire for the Nupafeed Supplements Senior Discovery Second Round and it was Ashlea Silk-Jones who produced the winning performance.

On Saturday, a battle ensued with each rider setting their sights on securing a treble clear as this would see them take a place in the Nupafeed Supplements Senior Discovery Championship Final, which will be held during the British Showjumping National Championships in August.

With twenty-six competitors taking their place in the jump off after producing a double clear in the first two round, the final jump off would prove to be truly pivotal as eyes fell on the all-important clock to decide the winner. 

Ashlea Silk-Jones from Romford, Essex pulled out all the stops to guide Jacqueline Jones’ 6 year-old dark bay gelding Vesuvs Vinetto in to first place. With the leader board stacking up with treble clears and the time tight, this pair were able to top off their consistent performance with another clear in an unbeatable time of 47.80 seconds.

Jumping into second place was Alice Godfrey from Billericay, Essex riding her own 5 year-old bay gelding, Hannibal S. This partnership crossed the finish line in 48.53 seconds, leaving all the fences standing for a treble clear.

Bringing home third place was Emma Ashworth from Bicester, Oxfordshire on board Marysia Orzazewska’s 7 year-old chestnut mare, Fjara. This pair jumped a treble clear and finished up in a time of 49.08 seconds.  

With another eleven combinations also achieving a treble clear, a total of fourteen combinations now go forward to the Nupafeed Supplements Senior Discovery Championship Final.
