Riders from the Ingatestone and Blackmore Riding Club became the National Junior Champions in equestrian showjumping at Malvern, Worcestershire, recently.

They beat West Scotland Riding Club by one mark out of 73 in the individual finals. Claire Nowland was placed eighth and Sally Emery second.

Not only was this was a great achievement, it was the first time the club had won this competition.
