A team of riders from The Stables Equestrian Centre raised £180 for charity this weekend, when they took part in the Vale of Aylesbury Sponsored Ride at RAF Halton.

The five riders, many of whom were taking part in their first cross country, enjoyed the spring sunshine as they completed the 90-minute course, each receiving a silver rosette for their efforts.

The team consisted of Trainee Instructors Sammy Jays riding Claymore, Laura Osbourne on Clover, Jen Browning riding Tick-Tock and Jaki Pyper on Marcus. Also joining the team was Lauren Jays riding Barnie.

Both Yard Manager Paula Jays and proprietor Jo Samuel-Blackstock were on hand to see the girls complete the course, with none putting a foot wrong and the horse behaving impeccably.
