Wherwell Cricket Club

Sunday 28th August 2011

KJM sponsored Wherwell clinched the league title from Hook and Newham. In a straight up league decider, which was preceded by heavy bouts of rain, Wherwell had a decisive four-wicket victory, with 10 overs to spare, on their home turf.

The side has performed above all expectation in 2011 and are relishing the challenge of the county league next season.

The Priory Stables, Wherwell

Saturday 13 August 2011

There was a fist full of firsts for The Priory Stables at the novices’ dressage event.

In the Introductory A class, Victoria Bell came first, riding the North’s horse, Joules, for the first time.

Second came Sue Evans riding Brodie, who is remarkable at 26, the oldest horse participating.

Third was Stephanie Griffiths, the youngest rider. Again, this was another first – her first ever dressage test on a new pony who is only five.

Fourth was Justine Wood, again, this was her and Paddy’s first dressage event together.

Fifth came Philippa Neal riding Louis. This was rather a courageous entry on Philippa’s part as Louis has only just been ‘riden away’ (broken in and ridden without a lunging rein). He was the youngest horse in the class, this was his first event, and only the fifth time he’d actually been in the arena.

Imogen Matthews riding Chino (see photo) won the Preliminary 7 class.
