Monday 09 October 2017

FIFE teenager Shaunie Greig claimed the biggest win in her career after landing the prestigious Leading Pony Showjumper of the Year title at the Horse of the Year Show.

Shaunie, from Dunfermline, triumphed with Casino Royale VIII to land a class first contested in 1949, with previous winners including Michael Whitaker, William Whitaker and Louise Saywell.

Twenty-seven starters came forward and Scotland had three riders each with two ponies apiece through including Nicole Lockhead Anderson and Fraser Reed. However, 10 combinations qualified for the jump-off, and Shaunie produced a cracking clear, stopping the clock in a time of 33.32 seconds, with Allana Clutterbuck and Sultan du Bary finishing second and Hannah Barker taking third with Ammanvalley Santino. Fraser Reed was sixth with Kilcloghan Dg Clover and Nicole ninth with Cappagh Supreme.

Shaunie, 14, said: "I have had the pony two years, and he is such a careful jumper. In the collecting ring, he tenses up at times, but once he gets into the ring he is fine."
