Hertfordshire County Show played host to the second British Horse Feeds Speedi-Beet HOYS Grade C Qualifiers of the season on Saturday, and it was Ronnie Jones from Dunmow, Essex who took home the honours riding Ruth Dowies Interstar B.
Course designer Peter Gillespie set a challenging test from the outset when only ten of the sixty-six initial starting combinations managed to produce a clear round for a spot in the jump off. Ronnie steered the 8 year-old dark bay gelding into the top spot when crossing the finish line in 35.43 seconds.
