Huge congratulations to our 6 members who qualified for the BRC Championships. Juniors Flora Gittins and Bonnie Bowness competed in the Dressage, as did Julie Jeffes in the Senior section. But our 90cm Jumping team of Sue Moger, Sarah Brown, Beth Mussell-Evans and Julie Jeffes came 7th after a very tense jump-off.
