Derby League (1 of 4) – 16.10.11

Just the right amount of twists and turns made the Indoor Derby Competition at Laurel View great fun for competitors and spectators alike on Sunday 16^th October.

With a super clear round Cheeky Charlie and Demi Blair were the clear winners of the 60cm Derby class.  Helen Gage on Laurel View took second after picking up 4 faults.  While a jump off decided that Andrew Clark and Annie had the edge on Amy Neill and Mister Darcy.

In the 70cm five contestants cleared the course making for an exiting jump off.  Under pressure it was Lesley Wilson on Lyleview Martell that had the quickest clear in the jump off to take the title from Paula McIlwrath and Foxi.

The 85cm class was also a real corker with Sarah Cuthbertson and Chance ultimately taking 1^st place, with a clean set of heels in the jump off. 4 faults in the jump off took Julia Lyttle and Zora Azoo into 2^nd place.

There was no let up in the action in the metre class.  Lucca Stubbington and Charlie had the only clear round, so scored first place.  With two on 4 faults a jump off between Sharon Riddell and Ziggy and Joseph Evans on ICB All Carrick Diamond brought the day to an exciting conclusion.

£2 from each entry is making sure the prize fund is stacking up nicely.  Competitors only need 1 pre final entry to qualify to compete for a stash of the cash.  The next opportunity to qualify is on Sunday 30^th October, so close to Halloween there are sure to be a few spooky surprises to make things even more interesting!  If you are too busy trick or treating then don’t worry you can still come along on Sunday 13^th November.  The final is in the schedule for Sunday 27^th November, remember you have got to be in it to win it!  All the Derby competitions have a pleasant 12 noon start with the 60cm.

Regular photographer Tom from Equi-Tog was clicking away to catch all the action as it happened.
