EVENTING RESULTS

Saturday/Sunday 24th-25th February, 2024 – Website Report
What unbelievable weather for two consecutive days in February! Despite the frosty morning starts, bobble hats were soon replaced with baseball caps and sunglasses – it stayed dry and the sun shone on all those competing in the Arena Eventing Championships.
The competition took place over two days, with the 70cm & 80cm classes on the Saturday and the 90cm and 100cm, in which the N&T did not have any riders, on the Sunday.
Members of the N&T Team competing on Saturday were:
Momoka Varian riding Lettermuckroo Lucy and Ollie Tunstill riding Neebro Bridesmaid in the 70cm, and Eiji Varian riding Pebbly Principal Boy and Georgina Knight riding Knockbridge Just Jimmy in the 80cm. Also in the 80cm class, qualifying as an Individual, Phoebe Horwood-Mead riding Glenayre Knight.
By the end of the day on Saturday, the N&T Team were in the lead! But, there were still the 90cm and 100cm classes on the Sunday – we had no Team riders, but other branches did!
All our members rode brilliantly – four of the five jumped double clears, two of which were also within the time (it’s really hard to get ‘spot on’ that optimum time in Arena Eventing!) Two riders very nearly gained podium positions, Phoebe finishing fourth in the 80cm and Momoka fifth in the 70cm.
And the Team finished ….. FOURTH out of 21 Teams!
Very well done to you all, you were great ambassadors for your Branch and Team Trainer Katie was extremely proud of you.
The Spring Festival is a great event to be part of, there is something for everyone within all the various disciplines and we would encourage all Members to try and qualify for next year and join in the fun!!
Special thanks to Katie and Fiona, who spent the whole week-end helping all the N&T riders – and, of course, our DC Tessa, for her unstinting support and strawberry laces!

Saturday 20th January 2024, Easton College
Team Trainer, Katie Barrett, was able to select five teams to compete in the four qualifying classes, 70cm, 80cm, 90cm and 100cm, from the 12 N&T riders competing on the day who were trying to secure their place for the opportunity to compete at the Barrier Animal Health Pony Club Spring Festival at Arena UK in February.
In addition to the four qualifying classes, there was a non-qualifier 60cm at the start of the day and Ollie Tunstill riding Neebro Bridesmaid jumped a super double clear, within the time, to finish third.
70cm In the 70cm class Ollie again jumped a double clear, with just 1.6 time penalties, finishing in sixth position and qualifying for the Spring Festival as an Individual. Emily Davey riding Cymcownwy Princess jumped a double clear with just 1.2 time penalties finishing in fourth position, securing her Team member place for the Spring Festival. Rosie Coleman, riding Marmalade, despite jumping a lovely double clear, just missed out on qualifying picking up two time penalties, finishing in 7th position. Arena Eventing is one of the most challenging disciplines to compete in, judging the pace to hit that ‘optimum time’ to avoid time penalties, without a stopwatch, is incredibly difficult!
80cm With six N&T riders in this class, five jumped double clears within the optimum time! These were Emily Davey riding Cymcownwy Princess, Phoebe Horwood-Mead riding Glenayre Knight, Archie Tunstill riding Oliver Twist, Eiji Varian riding Pebbly Principal Boy, and Georgina Knight riding Knockbridge Just Jimmy. Momoka riding Lettermuckoo Lucy also jumped a lovely double clear, with just 0.8 time penalties. Qualifiers from this class were Georgina, who finished second, and Eiji, both securing their Team places, plus Phoebe who qualified as an Individual.
90cm Six N&T riders also in this class, with Phoebe finishing the highest of the N&T competitors in sixth position. Sadly, no qualifiers in the 90cm.
100cm Just one N&T rider, Lily Wittich, who rode two horses, Billy and Elmo. Unluckily they each had a pole down, Billy just missing out on qualifying by one place, finishing in fifth and eighth positon respectively.
So, to the Team results – From the 32 Teams competing on the day – the N&T Terriers Team WON!!! Very well done Emily, Momoka, Eiji and Georgina – you’re off to the Spring Festival at Arena UK! Also, qualifying as Individuals – Ollie in the 70cm and Phoebe in the 80cm – huge congratulations to you all!
The five N&T Teams were made up as follows:
1st Terriers – Momoka Varian, Eiji Varian, Emily Davey, Georgina Knight
5th Beagles – Emily Davey, Momoka Varian, Phoebe Horwood-Mead
6th Hounds – Ollie Tunstill, Archie Tunstill, Ollie Basham, Eiji Varian
11th Foxes – Isla Smith, Ruby Wittich, Lily Wittich
16th Greyhounds – Archie Tunstill, Georgina Knight, Phoebe Horwood-Mead, Rosie Coleman.
Big thanks to Katie, who helped everyone from early morning until late into the evening – couldn’t do it without you!
