Showjumping News
This is a team of excellent showjumpers with a good number of wins at Hickstead (Derby Meeting and Royal International), Royal Windsor and other good venues.
One mare is already at Grand Prix level, plus Puissance and Hickstead Derby capability, two geldings have the scope to join her and another is a regular class winner at up to B&C.
LOUGHNATOUSA RAVEN

Raven and John win the Foxhunter 2nd round at Pycombe to qualify for HOYS

11 year old brown mare
Exciting all who see her immense scope, RAVEN is surely one of the more inexperienced horses to qualify for the prestigious Foxhunter Final at the Horse of the Year Show a few years ago. Now Grade A and placed in Grands Prix including the Hartpury Blue Chip, RAVEN is qualified for a Final at the Royal International Horse Show. However, the Hickstead 2008 Derby Meeting showed her true form when she placed well in FEI Finals, qualified with ease for the Derby and performed superbly in the Derby itself given her inexperience.

Rafa at Royal Windsor
9 year old bay gelding
A WINNER at 6 (Newcomers) at Henley in Autumn 2006, this erstwhile wild child is now an emerging professional and has the scope to catch up and perhaps even overtake his team mates.
Rafa has won twice at Hickstead including the All-England B&C Championship and placed in Main Ring finals. He has all his double clears for 2nd round Foxhunter 2008 and several for 2009. He has also won at Royal Windsor and took 1st place in his Blue Chip B&C Qualifier.

Jimbo at Hartpury
11 year old grey gelding
JIMBO joined the team on the back of a closing placed effort over 1.45s at a high quality show in Ireland. This fellow has the scope to compete at RAVEN's level but has been brought on quietly. Qualifying at Addington for the Blue Chip Finals at Hartpury, JIMBO went encouragingly there and had a first look at a serious Grand Prix.
