Thursday 10 April 2014
Dreams and ambitions were realised in the 23rd year of the Blue Chip Showjumping Winter Championships 2nd-6th April held at Hartpury Arena in Gloucestershire.
Buckinghamshire based 24 year-old Chantal de Verteuil claimed two titles. Her final round dash in the twenty-two horse jump off captured Horsequest UK Novice Championship on Jane Dexter’s Lux Z sired bay mare Carrighill PJ. “She’s not five until July and still green, but she’s so careful” said Chantal.
The Joshua Jones UK Discovery on her mother Anna’s 10 year-old bay mare Zoneless BC was victory number two after they outpaced forty-three jump-off rivals. “I was kicking from the start, although I didn’t risk the turn to the final planks” said Chantal, who has ridden the mare for ten months.
Running from October to March, eligible horse and rider combinations competed for the chance to qualify for the Blue Chip Showjumping Winter Championships at shows allocated all over the country.
