It was all about the Edwardses in the Bolesworth international arena on Friday of the national championships. H&H spoke to both the evening’s winners
Will Edwards won the British Showjumping national under-21 final in superb style aboard Shw Candies B at Bolesworth yesterday (7 August).
The combination jumped the only double clear of 15 starters to take the class, which as a “viewing class” is one watched by seldctors and taken into account for teams, with Robert Murphy on Elan V second and Olivia Poole on Quality in third.
