September Championship Trophy Show

Thank you to everyone who came today! It is hard to believe that it is the last show of the season already!!!

So as the sun started to set, the last rosettes were handed out and the last horse box drove off the field, the able bodied team of helpers from the committee tucked away the jumps for winter.

It was doubtful that there would be a show on Friday evening as the heavens opened. As ever the showground was incredible in draining!

We will send out a list of trophy winners after the points have been collated in the next couple of weeks, so you will all know what you have won. The big overall trophies are of course kept secret until the night, along with special merit trophies. It could be you!

We look forward to seeing you at Presentation Night.  Saturday November 27th, at Rumours nightclub, Lostock Social Club (CW9 7NW). Tickets are £6 adults and £4 children, and that includes a buffet.

First place in each class automatically gets a rosette, but if you want the tail print personalised (whatever you like, within reason!) it’s just an extra £4.

For those not so lucky, you can purchase a rosette with personalisation for £10. These will be a different colour to the champion rosettes. Sashes are also available with 3 lines of printing for £10. A form will be sent with the points list. And for all you newbies out there, these rosettes are VERY large!!!

There’s a raffle with great prizes, disco, games for the juniors, and it’s a great evening. We can’t wait!

But to finish off the season lets say a massive thank you to everyone!! Competitors, committee, judges, stewards, Ian and Andrea Foden at Cheshire Riding Club for a fantastic showground, Tony for yet another year of his superb First Aid support, competitor family and friends, photographers, trade stands, butty vans, ice cream vans, coffee shop man, toilet people…all for an amazing season.

But let’s not forget those that mean the most, the real characters of the show, the real star performers and the real reason why we’re all here at Bridgewater Riding Club; the horses and ponies that we all love so very much.

See you on the 27th November!

    I just wondered if I could check, is the open riding show class for any type horse or spercifically for riding horse types? Love the web site though- really easy to use and friendly :o ) Thanks

    Hi Rebecca,

    We don’t specify what type, but really this would be for riding horse types. Although we get all types that enter, so you would probably be ok.
    Maybe you could try the Riding Club Horse class?
