Jayne Ross was clearly delighted as she lifted the Royal International Horse Show ridden coloured supreme – the first championship of the 2022 RIHS – with Michael Cook and Tony Reynolds’ ultra-consistent home-bred mare KBF Crescendo (Daphne).

Daphne, a nine-year-old by Free Spirit, won the first class of the show in the Roger Stack Arena, which played host to the array of classes run by the British Skewbald and Piebald Association (BSPA), who were marking 20 years of involvement with the RIHS.
