A CHELMSFORD junior showjumper won a major competition.

Izabella Rogers has won the Les Squibb Winter 128cms Championship at Hickstead’s Longines Royal International Horse Show.

Although Izabella didn’t ride the fastest round, she was the only competitor to jump a clear round to win the class, partnering Nicola Rogers’ Whinney Lass.

The Longines FEI Jumping Nations Cup™ of Great Britain at the BHS Royal International Horse Show (25-29 July) is one of the oldest equestrian events in the world, as well as one of the biggest outdoor horse shows in the country.

It offers everything from the skill and power of international showjumpers clearing vast fences, the precision of top class show horses and ponies putting in foot-perfect performances.
