Wonderful winter show success for Christina and Gypsy Rose

Spalding’s Christina Faulkner and her horse Gypsy Rose II were on winning form at the Blue Chip Winter Show.

With record at the Hartpury Arena event in Gloucestershire, Faulkner and her little horse took top sport in the Joshua Jones senior 1m open class.

The duo also went on to be placed in three other classes at the popular championships.

With Faulkner away studying physiotherapy at Coventry University, the pair have only managed to jump at two other competitions this year.

They were also winners at their qualifier for the Blue Chip Championships at Onley Equestrian Centre in January and then in March they took top spot in the UK Supreme Open, held at Keysoe Equestrian Centre.
