Jayde and Eddie competed in the combined training 80cm and came fifth after dressage. They were third place overall out of a tough group of 16 riders.

Sophie Kruger competed in show jumping at her first big competition. She found it a challenging and exciting experience and she is looking forward to the next competition.
