Tara competed in the Open Horse class and won all phases of the competition, creating a big gap with her opponents.
John Ripley won the Advanced Single Horse class for fifth consecutive year. Rosanna Walters-Symons and Phillipa Howe battled in a neck to neck race in the marathon with their single ponies, but the cones cost Phillipa the win and Rosanna was crowned Champion.
