Of course, these results don’t actually recognise the huge achievements of the riders in a very large and competitive field. Each one of them was amazing and should be proud of how well they represented themselves and the Cavalier Centre. We’re very proud of them all.
Naturally we want to say lots of thank yous: to the participants and their families, to the volunteers over the weekend – both at Hartpury and back home, to the coaches, to those who cleaned, bathed and prepped the ponies, to the people who cleaned and polished the tack, to the cake bakers and providers of spotty neckerchiefs, as well as to all the many and varied supporters. And of course, to all our session volunteers throughout the year that helped participants to achieve their goals and reach the national championships!
We’re also so grateful to our participant, volunteer and Cavalier Centre photographer Sarah Price Photography. Thank you Sarah.
We’ll let you know when official RDA photographs are available.
