Wednesday 25 July 2018
Prolific pony showjumper Shaunie Greig has won The Oakley Coachbuilders Winter Grade C Championship at Hickstead’s BHS Royal International Horse Show on Wednesday 25 July.
Of eight competitors who jumped clear in the first round, the 15-year-old from Aberdeen rode the fastest jump-off riding Teagan Arla Rose, who is owned by Alison McDonald. The pair stopped the clock on 41.53, comfortably clear of closest rival Lily Attwood Freeman and Capability Brown on 42.58.
The Longines FEI Jumping Nations Cup™ of Great Britain at the BHS Royal International Horse Show (25-29 July) is one of the oldest equestrian events in the world, as well as one of the biggest outdoor horse shows in the country.
It offers everything from the skill and power of international showjumpers clearing vast fences, the precision of top class show horses and ponies putting in foot-perfect performances, and the speed and exhilaration of the scurry drivers and event riders galloping around Hickstead’s famous International Arena.
Showjumping highlights include the Longines FEI Jumping Nations Cup™ of Great Britain, the Longines BHS King George V Gold Cup, the BHS Queen Elizabeth II Cup and the MS Amlin Eventers’ Challenge. These historic classes attract the very best riders in the world, and there’s no better place than Hickstead for getting up close to these equestrian superstars.
