Rachel Proudley bags The Stable Company HOYS 138cm Qualifier win at the Welsh Home Pony

Wednesday 01 August 2018

Rachel Proudley stormed into victory with Buttons Two in The Stable Company HOYS 138cm Qualifier at the Welsh Home Pony at the David Broome Event Centre.

Forty-six competitors initially contended this final qualifier of the 2018 season, all chasing the three coveted HOYS tickets on offer. There were some hard-luck stories on the way, but course-designer Jamie Perryman’s 12-fence track reduced them down to fourteen for the second round and an eventual five tackled the jump-off.

Rachel, from Whitby, North Yorkshire. didn’t hold back in second draw and set a sizzling and unbeatable target with Paul Proudley’s ever-eager 14-year-old mare Buttons Two to win by 2.21 seconds.

Elissa Hermann chased hard but had to settle for second and third with her mother Edwina Herrmann’s 11-year-old gelding Never Last Spartacus and the 23-year-old gelding Fountain Ranger.
