JumpMix League gets underway at Hagans Croft
and live on Freeview channel 276
The day started out with the x-poles class where the judge was very impressed to see everyone achieving a clear round, all of whom where unassisted, remembered their full course of 12 fences and even managed to canter some of the course, finishing with big smiles on their faces and a rosette to prove all their hard work pays off.
The 50cm class seen all the fences adjusted to parallels, fillers and spreads were kept out at this stage to allow those moving up from x-poles to give it a go and gain confidence.

Onto the 60cm class where the course took on another dimension, fillers where added across the course and also back poles added to make spreads to some fences. Only 3 double clears finished the course and with Maisie Elliott and ‘Moonlight’ completing the course in the fastest time of 30.09 seconds, the pair took the win. Second place went to Gail Hadden on her mighty cob ‘Diesel’, the pair competed the course with a smile on both their faces and in a time of 33.91 seconds they certainly had something to celebrate when they took home the blue ribbon.
The 70cm class was the largest of the day, with a total of 14 competitors the competition was certainly hotting up. With 7 double clear rounds it came down to which competitors completed fences 9-12 in the fastest time and with 25.47 seconds on the clock it was Melanie Corbett and ‘Calypso’ who jumped into first place, cantering home with the red ribbon. Eva Wright and ‘Cappa Rose’ finished in a time of 29.06 seconds and second place.
What a great start to the 70cm league for these pair.
Chloe McLaughlin and her bay gelding ‘Teddyboy’ certainly made their mark on the 80cm class, with a faultless and speedy round, in fact the pair achieved the fastest round of the day with a time of 23.59 seconds there was no denying them first place and the red ribbon.

Hide AdAoife Davies was delighted with her pony ‘Pip’s’ performance in the 80cm class as they improved on their placing and speed time from the previous class. The pair claimed the blue rosette in a time of 29.25 seconds. A successful weekend
Onto the 90cm class where competitors where finding it hard to keep poles intact and even having a few sat nav issues. Clear rounds were feared to be non existent until Chloe Rooney entered the arena on ‘Aria’, the pair were the only ones to secure a double clear, therefore no-one could take the win away from them.
The icing on the cake was that the pair finished the course in a time of 29.10 seconds.
A few late entries meant that the 1m class went ahead, much to Sienna Dalzell and Chloe McLaughlin’s delight as the two friends battled it out for the top spot.
