Six top placings for Ruth Edge at BD National Championships


Ruth Edge qualified three horses for the British Dressage National Championships and after a very successful weekend, came home with six top placings!

Her top horse Shadowfax (pictured) produced a lovely test to finish in third place in a competitive Prix-St-Georges test on Thursday and Zero, the youngest horse in the class at only seven years old, finished in a very encouraging sixth place.

The following day, Shadowfax contested the National Intermediate I Championship and produced some lovely expressive work at the higher level to finish in sixth place and Ruth confirmed that she was delighted with his performances.

Saturday saw Charlesfield Dante in action in the National Medium Championship and he produced a harmonious test to finish in eighth place.

On the final Sunday, in the National Advanced Medium Championship, Zero narrowly missed an outright win in second place and Charlesfield Dante was ninth.

Ruth said modestly, "We had a good time and I really am chuffed with them all."

All three horses came home to well-deserved time in their Suregrow paddocks.
