2011 Teams
The Area 1 Horse Trials were incorporated into Area 22 this year on May 21st at Brechin. Fortunately our Chairman decided we should go up on the Friday and stable overnight, and as she was first on in the morning at 9am this turned out to be an excellent idea! Unfortunately Ailsa had to withdraw Alfie at the last minute as he was not quite sound so the novice team of Doreen, Jenny Foster and Sarah de Leon made the journey north with Amy following. Tango arrived minus a hind shoe but it was going to take more than that to stop anyone competing. The stabling was temporary stables on a windy hillside, hence not much sleep was had by the horses not to mention riders. 
Brechin was a lovely venue for the Horse Trials, plenty of space and the xc was solid and a good undulating course. The novice team were all clear xc so they finished on a high and the team finished 5th. Amy did a brilliant job with both Hugo and Kasilia in the intermediate section, Hugo was 1st and Kasilia 2nd individual - well done!

Horse Trials

Congratulations to the two Horse Trials teams who competed recently at Beamish. Novice team was fourth and the Intermediate team won. Amy Brown did exceptionally well as she was first, second & third individual on the intermediate section too. Many thanks to the helpers without whom the day would not have been possible.

 Dressage at Greenfields of Avondale 5th July
Congratulations to the Dressage competitors who braved wind and rain so they could impress the judges for us. The only saving grace was that any break in the torrential rain happened to coincide with their 8 tests so whilst they were windswept they weren't wet - there again they always say that the sun shines on the righteous! All in all the team did really well to get 4th out of ten teams particularly bearing in mind not only the dreadful weather, but that preparation was nil and also that 50% of the team was made up of completely inexperienced 5 year olds.
Sue de Leon got the special rosette for 3rd best team test in her arena so she did a brilliant job all day for us.

Show Jumping St Boswells 20th June
Well done to all who competed at the Area 1 Show Jumping at St Boswells on Sunday 20th June.
Amy Brown won the open as an individual and the intermediate team (Kirsty Thompson, Katie Massie, Katherine Edridge and Amy Brown) were an excellent second. There were two novice teams, South Lammermuir 1 consisted of Ellen Renton, Leah Fleming, Jen Lange and Sarah de Leon and South Lammermuir 2 were represented by Doreen Calder, Jenny Foster, Sue Keean and Liz Ward. Liz was one of the double clears and went into the jump off. South Lammermuir 2 finished sixth. It was a lovely day especially for us supporters in our deck chairs in the sun! 
Lots of photos on the Gallery page - thank you Robin.
