Winning ways for Robert on his return to the show ring.


ROBERT Walker showed he’d lost none of his competitive edge when recording two wins at his first show back after illness.

The Supreme Products team member, was in great form at Moreton-in-Marsh show, making his return a very successful one after three months away from the competition arena.

Riding Yorkie Jobling Purser’s bay gelding, Tank Top, Robert’s first win came in the Maxi Cob class, a wonderful success after a difficult few months.

Having intended to just compete in the one class when they set off for Gloucestershire at 3.30am, Robert’s win encouraged him to ride Jill Day’s Small Hunter, Golden Tasset, a winner the previous week for wife Sarah.

Another red rosette came his way when the four-year-old came out the judges the favourite.

Not to be outdone, and having had an excellent season herself, Sarah rode Lucy Smith-Crallan’s Large Hack, Genevieve to win her class and take the HOYS ticket, rounding off an excellent day for the yard.
