Sammy did particularly well considering a last minute horse change, big thank you to the Rowbotham family for lending him Penny. We also had a branch open junior team consisting of Olivia Kirkham, Ollie Rowbotham and Taryn Tinker. They were feeling the extra pressure of being the favorites to win, but they didn&#8217;t disappoint. Strong performances from all 3 to take the title. Olivia also picked up Best Player award, and Taryn collected the Best Combination with her horse, Ziva. A great weekend despite a very soggy start on Sunday. The impromptu &#8216;water complex&#8217; in the warm up created much amusement!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-1867\"
