CHARD Equestrian, in Crewkerne, hosted the Nupafeed Supplements Senior Discovery Second Round last week, with Bridgwater rider Chloe Reynolds taking victory with a speedy treble clear.

In glorious weather, a field of 57 set out to secure a place at the Senior Discovery Championship Final next month.

After two competitive rounds, 24 combinations progressed to the final jump-off, where Reynolds produced an unbeatable display, taking first place with Conchello Gold, a six-year-old chestnut mare owned by Jane Reynolds.

After two foot-perfect rounds to make the jump-off, they went on to storm round the newly shortened course in 30.20 seconds.

Claire Daniels from Tintagel, Cornwall, took second on her own eight-year-old grey gelding El Paso RK with a treble clear in a time of 34.47 seconds.

And Reynolds continued her treble clear form on Sally Waters’ 12-year-old black gelding, Kara – this combination jumped three strong clear rounds in 34.55 seconds for third.

With another eight partnerships also achieving treble clears, a total of 11 combinations go on to the Championship Final, which takes place during the 2017 British Showjumping National Championships, held on August 8-13 at the National Agricultural and Exhibition Centre in Warwickshire.
