There was a superb 1st 🥇 and 2nd 🥈 finish for British Bred horses at the recent Defender Burghley Horse Trials.
Gemma Stevens and CHILLI KNIGHT dominated the competition, completing on their dressage score and a massive 13.4 penalties clear of the field. The 16 year old gelding was bred by owners, Chris and Lisa Stone and is by their late SHB (GB) graded, Badminton winning stallion, Chilli Morning. Chilli Knight’s dam was Kings Gem (Rock King - Kings Mistress) and Gemma also rode her to 5*.
Congratulations too, to Katie Magee on her first top three finish at 5*, finishing 2nd on Angela Hislop’s TREWORRA ( Jaguar Mail - Trewinnow by Tower of Magic), following their 5th place at Badminton in the Spring. Treworra was bred by long term supporters and former trustees of the BRITISH HORSE FOUNDATION , Vin and Liz Jones of Preci-Spark, who were also responsible for breeding the dam, Trewinnow.
