PORT Royal held a double of affiliated and unaffiliated dressage this week with bumper entries for both sections.

York rider Amy Small scooped three first places, firstly on Sally Baker’s mountain and moorland pony, Wellbrow Dewdrop, in the prelim 19 and swapping to her own Dutch-bred horse, Triumph VD, to win its first attempt at a novice test and the novice freestyle music.

Becky Blyton, from Haxby, was giving her coloured mare Autumn its first run out in more than a year to a superb comeback gaining first place in both the prelim tests.
