PORT Royal Equestrian Centre, at Holme-on-Spalding Moor, is certainly holding its fair share of competitions.

Along with plenty of dressage competitions, there are also unaffiliated and affiliated showjumping competitions each week, keeping Michael and Michelle Bainbridge very busy.

Michelle said: “While the demand is there, we will provide the competitions.”

The mid-week competitions seem to be slightly quieter, which is great for those with youngsters, with the weekend ones tending to be very busy.

Connor Wilcocks and Sandtoft Spartacus had reason to celebrate winning the intro A class and then notching up a second to Steph Robson in the prelim 12.

Norton event rider Emma Corner took the opportunity to get both her horses out in preparation for the coming eventing season, finishing fifth in the novice 27 on Rio and then a second on Rio and third on Charlie in the novice 30, with less than one per cent between them.

Swinton junior rider Erin Chan, on Toppogigious Casper, was in the red-ribbon zone again, taking the novice 30 and elementary 44, finishing just short of 70 per cent in the novice test.

Erin said: “I just can’t quite make it to the 70 per cent mark but was really pleased with him again today.”
