Despite the final two days of competition being abandoned due to an excess of rain, Oliver squeezed in ten runners on days one and two at Oasby.
Coldplay III took top honours in an Open Novice section, finishing on his 24.5 dressage score whilst A Sportsfield Diamond took an Intermediate runner up spot.
Also in the ribbons were Miss Cooley (3rd in a novice), Cooley Down Under (6th, intermediate), Fernhill Freestyle (7th, novice) and Burghley champion Ballaghmor Class, who jumped a steady double clear for 9th in an open intermediate – both Oliver and ‘Thomas’ very happy to be out competing again.
