A MANNINGTREE showjumper has proved she's a stride above the rest after winning first place in a competition.

Georgie Roadnight and her horse Rich Ricardo have secured a place at the Senior Discovery Championship Final at the British Showjumping National Championships in August.

Georgie and eight-year-old Rich won the Nupafeed Supplements Senior Discovery second round at Anvil Park Stud, in Norwich, on Sunday, June 16.

The duo galloped ahead of her opponents and took a comfortable win with 8.45 seconds to spare crossing the line in 51.69 seconds.

Stacey Webb was her closest rival who also qualified for the British Novice Final last month.

They posted a time of 60.14 seconds.

The British Showjumping National Championships 2019 will take place during August 6 until August 11 at the National Agricultural and Exhibition Centre, in Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire.
