Angus Smales wins JumpCross Eventer's Challenge

Angus Smales went home £2,500 richer after capturing the inaugural JumpCross Eventer’s Challenge a new fixture on the summer calendar. Riding the 10-year-old bay gelding, It’s A Jackpot owned by Patti Bulman, a delighted Angus punched the air as he crossed the finish line clearing the Lincoln Joker. Having recently set up his own yard at Fleckney in Leicestershire, Angus is currently competing 12 event horses and said the prize money would be ‘put to very good use.’

Clayton Fredericks and Mr Miller captured second place, the eight-year-old grey gelding owned by Eckhart Seiwert proving a useful member of Clayton’s team.
