Hertfordshire’s Jodie Hall Mcateer Wins Charles Stanley Winter JA Classic Qualifier at Addington Manor Equestrian Centre

Thursday 04 February 2016

Addington Manor Equestrian Centre in Buckinghamshire held a Winter 148cm Pony Premier Show last weekend and the two Charles Stanley Winter JA Classic Qualifiers were once again an important part of the show.

Forty-five combinations started out across the two days of competition and each rider was focused on securing a sought after qualification spot for the prestigious Charles Stanley Winter JA Classic Championship, which will be held during the Charles Stanley British Masters International Horse Show (1st - 3rd July 2016).

 

Charles Stanley Winter JA Classic Qualifier – Sunday 31st January 2016

Last year’s Winter JA Classic Champions, Jodie Hall Mcateer and Tixylix got their title defence campaign off to a solid start on Sunday with a win in the qualifier.

 

Fifteen year-old Jodie from Borehamwood, Hertfordshire guided the 18 year-old chestnut mare Tixylix owned by Sarah Mendoza round the final jump off with precision and pace to finish with a treble clear in 37.19 seconds, a result which saw them lead the jump off from the very start.

 

The only other treble clear of Sunday’s class came from 14 year-old Jack Whitaker from Whatton, Nottinghamshire. Jack delivered three clear rounds with his father Michael’s 10 year-old chestnut mare Zodianne Van De Doevenbree and clocked up the last of them in 37.53 seconds.

 

Jodie Hall Mcateer cemented a successful afternoon by also talking third place on The Little Squire, a 10 year-old grey gelding owned by her mother Mandy Hall. Jodie and The Little Squire were unlucky to pick up 4 faults, but they also secured a fast time of 37.82 seconds.
