Brief report following Horse of the Year.

Friday night there was a demonstration  between the NZ Under 21 Squad and the Presidents Selection in the show jumping arena and a couple of chukkas of a game. This was well received by the audience but from the comments in the stand, the young riders – Katie Wills, Mirren Tye, Dean Cave and Cullen Duff got the biggest applause.

Saturday

                                                        
This was a close game, not at all one sided. The NZ Under 21 girls were strong and did the damage. Caron Mouat had a great game.

Sunday

Accumulated scores gave the Presidents Selection a one goal victory with final score 27 – 26. This was a most exciting game with Laura Dempster and Anaru Kururangi in great form and the defence players too strong for the Under 21 Team. The manager of the Presidents Selection Robbie Matthews received the Domhealth Challenge Trophy from Ken Wrigley.

NB – Olivia Gloyn replaced Savannah Larsen – Church on the Sunday as Savannah went show jumping.

The results for the Domhealth Challenge Trophy are as follows.
2009- Presidents Selection
2008– NZ Under 21 Team
2007 – NZ Under 21 Team
2006 – Victoria Under 21 Team.
