Lead-rein show hunter pony Jonika Whistles The Wind produced by the Emmerson Show Team claimed the Supreme Champion award with six-year-old Martha Jobling-Purser at Cheshire Premier Spring Show.
The eight-year-old bay gelding made nothing of the blustery conditions at Cheshire Premier showing his impeccable manners and superb conformation, even when Supreme Products team member Sarah Emmerson had to make a quick detour to avoid a paper bag.
Young show rider Martha is in her first full season with her mother’s pony, with the pair winning their RIHS qualifying class and then going Supreme Champion.
Martha is no stranger to the horse world following in the footsteps of her family who all hunt with the Morpeth and her great-aunt Juliet Jobling-Purser was one of the first women to compete at the Olympics. But Martha is the first to have success in the show ring.
In the show hunter ponies it was Alice Greenwood and Greylands Stardust, produced by Team Hollings, who took the championship.
The 143cm mare showed her outstanding quality with a proper gallop in true hunter pony style. Ridden by 15-year-old Alice, they are now in their third season together and have picked up many titles including Blue Riband champion at the BSPS Summer Championships last year.
