Sharon Hunt update: The ups and downs of eventing

Our sponsored rider, Sharon Hunt, has had a busy, and successful time of it recently. She took a lorry full of horses to Nurstead where the young horses won a BE 100 section and came 4th and 5th and Bambi came 7th in her first Novice. Then it was off to Hambleden where Impulsive won the BE 100 Open, and in the BE 100 Opposition Express was 2nd and Cavalier Bertie 4th.

Chatsworth was good for Sharon, Bambi was 8th in the Novice and Tankers Town had his biggest win so far in the CIC 3*. Brigstock saw Azeb coming 5th in the Intermediate while Romeo Z was 7th.

As it always is in eventing - there are ups and downs and at Badminton Sharon jumped the wrong side of a flag so decided to pull up sadly after a good dressage test, saving Tankers Town for another day.

Look out for more updates but you can read more about Sharon's world on her blog http://sharonhunt.wordpress.com/
