More than 1,000 tests took place over five days of competition at the Sheepgate National BYRDS Championships for under-25s, 13-18 August 2007, in Lincolnshire.
Emily Harris made her last year as a pony rider a memorable one. On her team debut, she won team bronze at the recent European Championships and, at Sheepgate, she took the BDSC Pony Championship. On both occasions Emily rode the 11-year-old stallion Don Joshi, who will be for sale at the end of the season.
Another team member, Keri Bates and Donna Parrina, who achieved the best British individual placings (seventh) at this year’s European Junior Championships, won the London Outpost Junior Championships.
