The New Horizon Plastics London Arena was the stage for two exceptional Championships today, both highlighting performance excellence: the New Horizon Plastics BSPS Performance Coloured Championship and the BSPS Performance Pony Championship. The standard of competition was outstanding, with great displays of skill and partnership.
In the New Horizon Plastics BSPS Performance Coloured Championship, Kayleigh Catton and her striking piebald partner, Horsmans Landlord – also known as Barry – delivered an incredible Show that secured their Champion title. The duo impressed the judges with their elegance and manners in the Show ring. Reflecting on her win, Catton shared: “I feel ecstatic. He is such a superstar. We travelled from the Wirral yesterday, which took about five hours, and every mile has been worth it. I’d like to thank London International Horse Show for hosting these classes – we truly appreciate it.”
In the BSPS Performance Pony Championship, Maisie Kerry-Oates and her six-year-old pony, Cadlanvalley Royal Bronze, claimed the title after triumphing in their qualifying BSPS Junior Performance Pony class. This marked the pair’s debut appearance at London International Horse Show, and beaming with pride, Kerry-Oates said: “I am over the moon. He is a pony of a lifetime – there will never be another quite like him. I am so proud of him.”
