Day 2 (cross country), wonderful riding out there on a tricky cross country course.  Wakatipu/Hawea Wanaka/South Otago Composite is sitting in 6th place and Wakatipu is sitting in 12th place.

Last day (Show Jumping), at the completion of the Show Jumping Wakatipu finished 11th, a fantastic achievement. 

Sadly the Wakatipu/Hawea Wanaka/South Otago team had a pony withdrawn from the Show Jumping phase due to lameness, but the rest of the team completed the show jumping on their live scores.

We are all very proud of how well you all did over the weekend.   Well done!
