A WHITBY dressage rider has been selected to compete for Great Britain at a competition in France.
Cara Shardlow, who runs the Beckside Livery Stables, was selected with her horse Detonator.
The contest will take place at the end of October on the outskirts of the town of Le Mans in the north of the country.
Ms Shardlow said she is currently enquiring about sponsorship opportunities for local businesses to help fund the trip.
She and Detonator have had a successful year so far, winning the Petplan Inter 1 Finals, and numerous top ten placings in the Premier Leagues PSG.
