We were thrilled with our day at HOYS after all 3 ponies jumped superbly in the Enablelink Ltd 128cm Championship.
Annabel had qualified Daffodil, Whinney Lass and Bunbury Conquest for this championship, so we had a busy day planned with a great team on hand.
Daffodil was drawn first to go in the class, jumping a lovely clear round. Next up was Whinney Lass who jumped 12th and had an unlucky fence in the first round.
Second to last to go was Bunbury Conquest who also produced a fantastic clear round to join Daffodil, and 11 other combinations in the jump off.
Daffodil jumped clear in the jump off, with a time of 32.07, finishing 7th overall.
Questie set off at a blistering pace to stop the clock in a time of 25.64 - winning the class!

It's been a fantastic trip to Wales and West Home Pony and Summer Premier show with a win in the 128cm Teams.
Annabel and Bunbury Conquest (Questie) made the trip to Wales to join team mates Lucia Caroline, Portia Taylorwilson, and Anya Dewey Clark for today's Home Pony competition.
We headed off to Wales and West immediately after Wednesday's 128cm Championships at Hickstead Royal International Horse Show, where Annabel jumped two immaculate double clear rounds with Questie and Whinney Lass, coming 2nd and 3rd.
We are delighted that Annabel and Bunbury Conquest have been selected to be part of the 128cm England Home Pony Team for the Wales and West Home Pony Competition.
The pair have been selected alongside Lucia Caroline and Desdemone du Marquais, Anya Dewey Clarke and Jim (Cobid), Freddie Hodges and Durley Hall Medici, and Portia Taylor-Wilson and Ni Kkan.
