IT WAS a very rewarding weekend at Netherton Equestrian, Perthshire, for the Scottish Quest Semi-Finals, especially for those coming from the North-east.


A special mention should go to GDG For Piaffe’s Sake for winning the Open Team competition and qualifying for the finals at Arena UK  – the team consisted of Lucy Little and Lilly (Intro 64.04%), Kerry Balment and ACHN Jump The Red (66.88%), Amy Louise Forbes with Old Meadow Niall (Prelim 69.48%) and Charisse Deigan and Rusty Boy (Novice 66.7%).

 

Kate Anderson and Cashel Bob won both the Prelim and Novice My Quest classes against strong opposition, boding very well for the future for this lovely partnership.

The Quest Finals will be held at Arena UK in Lincolnshire on 13th to 15th November.
