Further Coverage of SDRC members in July Ridgeway rider

Picture

The July issue of Ridgeway Rider, gives exposure of the success of the combined training seniors team involving Tammy Thornton, Nicola Davis, Laura Wall and Kerry Alexander, who finished third. Read More about the NAF BRC Festival of the Horse on page 30.

Also coverage for Livy Hoyland at the Hand BYRDS Festival; Livy was riding for the Wiltshire team, who won the county championship by a convincing margin. An excellent report for one of the clubs younger members (Page 22) .

SDRC is continuing to get reports on many of its members outings, keep them coming in. Well done everyone!

Lucie appears in both Ridgeway Rider & Central Horse News

Picture
There is a very nice write up in Sept issue of Ridgeway Rider about member Lucie Humphries & her horse Sherry.
It covers their results at Swalcliffe both individually & as part of the senior team consisting of Lynne Hawkins, Kerry Fleming, Kerrie Alexander & Lucie who all came 5th in the 90cm horse trials event.
This event was run over two days with dressage followed by roads & tracks, steeplechase & cross country. Both of the Kerrie's had also ridden for the 80cm team so had been there for three days and were certainly tired at the end of it.
Thanks goes to Amanda Fitzgerald for doing a fantastic job rallying the teams together, as well as being in all the right places at the right times.

Tammy Thornton gets write up in June H&H

Excellent piece about Tammy & her special
mare Lady winning their first BE90 at West
Wilts.

Its excellent to see that our SDRC members
are making headlines so regularly.

Laura Wall also made it into the June issue of
Ridgeway Rider following on from the article
in April.

Laura Wall makes headlines in April Ridgeway Rider

Picture
Click on article to read about Laura Walls dressage qualifier
for Royal Windsor on her horse Favara Dynasty.

This was her first outing representing SDRC seniors after
moving up from being a junior last year.

We hope that the pair will go from strength to strength
 representing the club in multiple disciplines.

Eleanor makes headlines in march issue of Ridgeway Rider

Picture


Read about Eleanor's triumph online at www.ridgewayrider.co.uk on page 4 alongside other regional news.
 
The sibling rivalry between Eleanor and her twin sister has been strong over the past couple of years when it comes to these championships; yet this year Eleanor has done it and Ruth, Eleanor's sister, will play the role of groom this time around.

We wish her and the other team members the best of luck at Hartpury, over the easter weekend.

Donna nominates Caron as her Magic mentor

Picture
Get your copy of the January 2013 Ridgeway Rider to read about Donna Godwin's tremendous personal achievements with Jay, her fabulous coloured cob. Donna attributes her progress as a rider and success as a keen member of the SDRC teams to Caron's support and ingenious methods as a trainer.

You may also read Donna's story and celebration of our magnificent mentor's methods online at www.ridgewayrider.co.uk on page 8.

We should like to thank Donna for mentioning the club too. It is through the club that many of us have met Donna and Jay and marvel at their wonderful partnership. A true example of harmony between horse and rider (and demons cross-country!)
