GISBURN equestrian star Trudy Goulding has claimed top honours in a prestigious coun­ try show. Trudy (22), of End House Stud, won the


Working Hunter Class at Great Eccleston Show, riding a very special horse. She rode a horse bred from a Russian


thoroughbred stallion and a Hanoverian mare by the Czechoslovakian state national stud. It was imported to Gisburn by Norman and Joyce Goulding as a two-year-old and is unique to this area. In the competition, Trudy and the horse,

Diktant Bilo Vicky, had to go through three gruelling sections. The first was over a series of rustic fences.


Each competitor jumped the set course and all the clear rounds then go through the next sec­ tion. The rider and horse are marked on jump­ ing and style and Trudy secured top marks. Next, a judge rides the horse and more


points are awarded. Although Trudy did not achieve top marks,


she was still well in contention for the title. After this section the horse is then checked for confirmation and trotted in hand. After this final round, there was no dispute
