Winning Debuts For Walker Duo!


The Walker family have had plenty to celebrate this month with wins at North of England, Royal Windsor and Three Counties Spring Festival.

Supreme Products team rider and producer, Robert Walker and Claire Twiston-Davies’s cob, Paddy Power, took top spot in the lightweight cob class at North of England before going on to take the championship securing his RIHS qualification.

Robert and his son Sam celebrated a double win, both riding youngsters on their debuts at Three Counties.

Sam claimed his RIHS ticket with the four-year-old Annandale Phoenix after heading the Lead-Rein of Show Hunter type class.

Said Robert: “Phoenix was only collected just 10 days before the show but he has a fabulous temperament and he knows he is a winner.”

Robert rode Claire Twiston-Davies’s Whalton Forgery, whilst sister-in-law Victoria Hesford is pregnant, and on his debut won the Novice Hack class. The pair then claimed the overall hack tricolour.

Royal Windsor saw Jill Day’s cob Chesterton ridden by Robert win the Novice Lightweight Cob class and then take overall cob Champion in an impressive start to his showing career.
