Saveiro goes Point to Poimting
Bumper crowd at Easter Saturday Higham point-to-point races
Another local yard in magnificent form all year has been the Wymondham yard of Sandra and Caroline Fryer.
T
he mother and daughter team have enjoyed their best-ever season and continued their form with the facile victory of Saveiro in the Ladies Open. Gifted to owner David Gibbon by under rules trainer Alan Swinbank, Saveiro has proved a revelation since joining the Fryer yard, winning three of his four starts including twice at Higham.

Hurricane Rita
Sucsessfully rehomed thanks to mark and Lindsey lee. Rita had the winter off to forget about racing and focus on becoming a riding horse and getting fat!  She is now working away nicely under saddle and with her owners being very competitive in the show ring were expecting very big things from her in the years to come.

Needwood
Owned by Hannah Watson for the past 7 years. He’s competed to a high level in all spheres,especially ROR classes.

Pioneer Boy and Shayla

Sir Cycroid Hawk
2006 bay gelding – Hawk Wing (USA) — Danccini (IRE) (Dancing Dissident (USA)
A good sort who never got a chance to show what he capable of in racing, through  niggling problems, shows he is going to be more than capable in his new home of eventing.
At his first event, he got middling dressage, one down in showjumping and clear cross country with a couple of time faults.
He is starting affiliated British Eventing  in August at Frickely (Doncaster) and then Norton Disney (Lincolnshire) in September.
If all goes to plan he be coming up to Richmond, Aske, Northallerton etc.

 

Sir Charlie Hutch
2005 chesnut gelding – Spartacus (IRE)  — Susan (IRE) (Pips Pride)
A strapping German bred by Spartacus failed to live up to expectations on the racecourse, but has taken well to his new life.
Going brilliantly and just started jumping, he won at first time out at the Charity Newmarket Show in the Thoroughbred ring and was 2nd and 4th in his first 2 dressage tests.  He will go affiliated eventing next Spring. Well done to his new owner Hetty Stearn as he looks to have a big future in his new discipline.
