Nicky Barrett Claims Her First British Grand Prix
Champion's Title
"Everybody
has to win it at least once", Nicky Barrett told
the press after her victory in the 2002 British Dressage
Championships. Nicky Barrett has never made a big impression
on the European scene with her Giorgio S, but in England
the combination is hot. .At the 2002 British Dressage
Championships in Warwickshire, England, Barrett scored
67.56% in the Grand Prix and 73.37% in the kur to music,
making her overall score the highest of the field of
competitors for the title.
In second place was the fairly new combination Nicola
McGivern with Active Walero. With 67.40% and 72.29%
she claimed silver and just missed gold. Expected to
claim the title was the WEG combination Emile Faurie
and Insterburg, but they eventually settled for bronze.
The hot Insterburg scored 66.84% and 71.36%.
In the Prix St Georges tour, Carl Hester and his undefeatable
Escapado took home the trophy. Scoring 72%, Hester comfortably
highlighted his already successful 2002 show season
with this national title.
