George Whitaker impresses at Pony European Viewing Trials

George Whitaker jumped into contention at the Pony European Viewing Trials at Kenyon EC after pulling off superb wins in both trials on Miami Bound.

Maintaining their form from Unex Towerlands, Zoe Adams and VIP Tixylix also put in a solid clear to take second place, while Danielle Willett (Gold Harvest), Pippa Allen (Spot The Lady) and James Smith (Mr Nice Guy) were also clear.

George and Miami Bound put up another flawless display to win the third day’s jump-off class by 1sec. Last year’s team gold medallists Rebecca Roe and Aroldo took second place with an immaculate round. Jordan Whittaker and Edsillia finished third ahead of Danielle Willett and Gold Harvest in fourth, while Laura Neilson riding Micklow Madness took fifth.
