Eco Voltz Foundation Points Rider League

At the end of August, there was a big shake up in the Eco Voltz Foundation Points Rider League with John-Paul Sheffield taking over the top of the table on 234 points. 

Helping him achieve a total of nine wins at BE100 and BE90 level – and a substantial lead in the league – by the end of August, John-Paul piloted Jane Heerbeck’s six-year-old mare, Julia B, and Isobel Crosbie’s five-year-old gelding, Kingsman, to an impressive three wins each.

Sitting over 100 points behind John-Paul on 128 points, Georgie Strang holds her second place from her league position in July. In August, Georgie added a BE100Open win, on Carolyn Bates’ stallion, A Moment In Time II (Aston Le Walls (X)) and a third place finish, on Anne Stratton and Pippa Woodall’s Katelane, in the 5YO class at Wellington International.

Lucy Robinson, also made a leap up the leaderboard this month after earning 63 points throughout August, including six top five placings to sit in third place on 119.
