Brentwood School showjumper Claudia in sizzling form

Brentwood School’s Claudia Moore was in sizzling form winning the Charles Britton Equestrian Construction Winter JA Classic Qualifier at SouthView Equestrian Centre last weekend.

The hotly contested qualifier, held at the impressive venue in Cheshire, was part of the 148cm Pony Premier Show. Claudia, a 2nd Year pupil, topped the leaderboard securing her spot in the prestigious Charles Britton Equestrian Construction Winter JA Classic Championship.

From a strong field of twenty-nine competitors, 13-year-old Claudia took the win on board fourteen-year-old bay gelding and Liverpool International winner, Elando Van De Roshoeve. With just five through to the final round, Claudia tactically produced an accurate round to secure the sole treble clear of the class in 43.69 seconds.

The Championship will be held during the British Masters International Horse Show, also at SouthView Equestrian Centre (29th June – 1st July 2018).

Claudia has hit 2018 in sizzling form. She followed up this success with wins on two other ponies, Deflip and Shamrock Du Gite, in the Winter JC qualifier for the Royal International Horse Show, Hickstead. She then went on to gain qualification for the Charles Britton Winter Final at the Charles Stanley International in July this year with a very creditable 2nd place with Shamrock.

Claudia has now qualified with both Elando and Shamrock for the Charles Stanley International which is a trial event for selection for this year’s Pony European Championship Team.

Her super run of form over the past two weekends means Claudia now has four ponies qualified for various finals, with only one pony “Bugsy” left to qualify.

This weekend she attends the Scottish leg of The Winter Pony Premier Series.
