Another day of wonderful weather greeted riders today on the second day of competition in the Victorian Jumping Titles, held at the Werribee Park National Equestrian Centre. For a link to our Day 1 report, click HERE.
The first class in the second ring was Round 2 of the PetSTOCK sponsored Victorian Children’s Championship, which was taken out in a repeat performance of Round 1 by Victorian Junior Development Squad member Zara Adnams and Digmac Disco King. Adnams recorded double clear and was almost 5 seconds faster than her nearest rival in a dominant display. Wins in both rounds 1 and 2 see this combination with a strong chance of taking the title as they prepare for tomorrow’s final.

Round 2 of the Glenwood Park – Victorian Junior Championship was won by Sydney based Lucy Locke and Diamont, who went one better than their second placing in Round 1. A similar strong performance in Sunday’s final will see them with a solid chance of taking the title.
The second round of the Tri Fixx – Victorian Young Rider Championship was won by 2019 NSW Junior Champion Anneliese Wansey and Kolora Stud St Patrick. This was a great effort by Wansey as she is still eligible for and competing in the Junior Championship, where she finished today in both third and sixth place. The Young Rider Championship will be decided with a Final on Sunday and this competition is wide open.
James Arkins and Eurostar had a much improved Round 2 in the Martin Collins – Victorian Senior Championship after their 13th placing in Round 1. With a double clear performance and a sizzling jump-off round, more than 5 seconds faster than the runner-up, Arkins has announced himself as a serious contender for the title. His cause was assisted by the Round 1 winning combination of Amber Fuller and CP Aretino, slipping back to eighth place today. Frida Lindgren and Ashleigh City Lights followed up their fourth placing in Round 1 with second place today, positioning them well going into Sunday’s final.
Below are the first six placegetter in all today’s classes.
Congratulations to all the winners and placegetters.
