The reserve foal was Gail and Mike Holden’s Biggar champion Coverdale Delboy, a February-born son of Skellorn Christiano Ronaldo.

Reward took his second championship of the day in the adults in-hand classes where Jessie and Aileen Singleton’s six year old gelding Barleith Ocean Dreams, by Windale Will O’ The Wisp, was reserve. He had been supreme at Strathkelvin and champion at Fenwick.

This five year old black section A mare, a daughter of Blaenau Freddie and Swinford Emily had been supreme at Dalrymple, a winner at the Grand Slam Show, and the BSPS Scottish Branch mini Heritage points champion.
