Hughes and Gould In Command at 2006 British Winter
Championships
April 11, 2006
Andrew Gould and Gareth Hughes have shown to be in
command over their competitors at the 2006 British
Dressage Winter Championships, sponsored by Horse and
Hound.
In the advanced medium class, Australian born Gareth
Hughes beat the invincible pair Damian Hallam and Spirit
Freedom.
Aboard
Rebecca Patmore's 8-year old Korenbloem Sandman (by
Jazz), Hughes won the Advanced Medium and Medium Open
division. Hallam, who rode his 2005 World Young Horse
Reserve
Champion
to a second place, stated that a virus kept Spirit
from being his best.
Andrew Gould reigned supreme on the 18 hands high
KWPN branded Numero Uno, winning the Prix St Georges
freestyle
and
Intermediaire
I freestyle.
“
It's been a long old wait to get another title,” said
Andrew. “Numero Uno's a big horse (18hh) and
takes some balancing. Last year he was still quite
weak, but is now much more established," Gould told Horse
and Hound.
