Lamorna’s riding success

Lamorna qualifies for national schools’ championship

Lamorna (Upper Fifth) recently represented Exeter School at a national show jumping qualifier at Moreton in Dorset, competing against teams and individuals from Millfield, Bryanston, Sidcot and Gillingham to mention but a few. She secured 1st place in the 90cm competition against over 50 other riders and a 3rd place in the 80 cm. She has qualified to represent the school at The National Schools Equestrian Championships in the Autumn.

You may remember that Lamorna represented Exeter School on Destino at Bicton College in a Devon dressage competition in May. Lamorna was placed third qualifying for the national event in Addington in October, and at Bampton she came 5th at the one-day event in Dorset, qualifying her for the national 3-day event at Moreton in Dorset which she has just competed in. The weekend after the event at Bicton, Lamorna had the amazing opportunity to compete at the National Schools’ Equestrian championships which took place at Hickstead at the end of May and ended up 25th out of 260 competitors in the 80cm class and 11th as an individual in the 90cm eventers challenge.

These are absolutely amazing achievements and we hope to continue following Lamorna’s riding career. Good luck at nationals Lamorna!
