Hide AdBecky and Dolly are very successful showing competitors and recently competed at the Royal Highland Show at Ingilston.
Dolly is a skewbald gypsy cob whom Becky has owned for several years and they have won wide acclaim in showing circles across their time together.
They also compete in unaffiliated dressage at local venues.
Reserve show champion was Marc Mitchell with Siangie Miami.
This is a new combination and this was the pony’s first ever competition so marking a great start to what must be a promising career.

The show included lots of fun classes including the prettiest mane and tail as well as the best six legs and all classes contributed points for competitors towards the Highfield at Howe Supreme Championship at the end of the year.
This weekend at Howe there is a two day showing show with several qualifiers for major shows, including the Ecosse Championships for Scottish native breeds and the Caledonia Showing Championships.
There will also be qualifiers for the Blair Castle Working Hunter championships on the day.
