Rockingham is always a great event and after the popularity of the event among team members last year, we decided to go ahead and enter 2 teams for a consecutive year. The teams were made up of 3 members each (we were missing a 70cm rider in both unfortunately!).
AG Hendricks Milly Jones & Mill Nuez Helen Nicholls & Angelo of Dalwhinnie
Kate Bouchier & Dexter's Calico Joe
AG Tanqueray Anna Rose & The Artist Crest Katy Briggs & Macs Dreamer Katrina Malyshenko & Raratomba
The day at Rockingham Castle was forecast to be overcast with a chance of rain, and lucky for us the rain held out and it turned out we had quite a nice day (if not slightly cooler than last year!).
Our girls jumped beautifully, and racked up some impressive placings (14th, 31st, 22nd, 26th, 14th) considering there were nearly 50 teams entered in total!!! But we'd like to give a special mention to Katy Briggs who placed 6th in the 90cm on her first outing for Aspley Guise & District Riding Club!! Well done Katy!!!
Next up? Summer Dressage at Home Farm Alconbury on 7th July. More details for this to follow.

If you're interested in joining the jumping or dressage teams for future events, please contact one of the team managers (Sarah Legg for jumping, Lauren Hewett for Dressage) or email us at info@aspleyguiseridingclub.com
We're always happy to see our teams grow, Senior or Junior! And we'd really love to hear from some more Juniors who would be interested in representing our club at Area Qualifiers and Nationals.
