Harriet Birkby comes 2nd at Olympia

Harriet Birkby one of our members, and her pony Snowy, competed in the mini-major at Olympia on 18th December 2016.

At just 11 years old and her first time competing at Olympia, Harriet (and Snowy) came 2nd by only 100th of a second, an absolutely amazing achievement.

Harriet only heard that she would be allowed to compete at Olympia on Friday night, just a day and half before competing.  A huge thank you to Shane and Chloe Breen for their support and Shane giving her a lesson on Saturday morning and talking her through what she could expect.

Also Harriet recently jumped in the mini-major class at the Liverpool Show, coming 7th in her class.

Well done Harriet we are all extremely proud of you.
