Danielle finishes 2009 in positive fashion

Danielle finished 2009 with another solid performance after both Wonderland and Telstar were placed at Markfield.

Danielle is looking forward to the winter shows with Telstar who has always shown a good level of talent.

Orlof Wisbecq was also in good form at Arena UK , jumping very well to finish in 8th place in the Young Riders qualifiers.

Two weeks later at the Westerm Lawns equestrian center Danielle and 'Wilf' took part in a team competition and produced two impressive clear rounds of showjumping to help the team obtain a very good third place.

The scope festival, at an extremely wet Staffordshire Show Ground, was very competitive as usual. Danille jumped 'Wilf' in the Under 21 qualifier on the second day of this marathon seven day show and was impressive jumping clear to finish in 4th place to secure a place in the final. The Grants Veterinary Services Under U21 Final was looking good for Danielle after 'Wilf' jumped another double clear, but Danielle was piped at the post and had to settle for 3rd place. Danielle also jumped her fast improving and impressive Caramelle KTL in the Foxhunters masters competition and after putting in a flawless display of jumping over the first thirteen fence Caramelle KTL had an extremely unlucky four faults at the very last fence. This young horse has improved leaps and bounds this summer and Danielle is very hopeful this really nice grey mare will have an excellent autumn/winter campaign and continue to improve.

Danielle's stable star Orlof Wisbecq has also been in excellent form and has been busy since his class performance at Wales & West. At the Wisbecq CSI** International meeting "Wilf" was in super form with a very impressive double clear to finish in 5th place in the 1.45m International Open and then followed that up with an even more impressive placing in the 1.50m Grand PRIX finishing 8th in a very strong field over a big and technical track.

Danielle, riding Orlof Wisbecq, jumped a superb clear in the first round to be only one of six in the jump-off over what was a very technical and big track set by the International track designer. Danielle started off the jump-off in very determined mood and having flown the big oxar in the middle of the arena galloped down to the second last up on the clock, unfortunately Danielle and "Wilf" could not quite make the turn and even though Danielle came back and jumped the last two fences her chance had gone and had to settle for an excellent sixth place. Obviously disappointed, Danielle will no doubt be back for another crack at the Championship next year.
