YOUNG rider Holly Bradshaw secured both qualifying places at the Trailblazers second round competition in the Forest of Dean.
Thirteen-year-old Holly, from Bromyard, won her class on her 14hh pony Bohemian and also took second place on the smaller palomino Sovereign.
The Marden and District Riding Club member was delighted with the win because Bohemian was very ill last year and underwent colic surgery.
Holly and her ponies will now go through to the final at Stoneleigh in September.
Holly is a pupil at St Richards School in Bredenbury, near Bromyard, but she will be moving on to Stonar School, Wiltshire, in September where she has gained a pony club scholarship.
Meanwhile, dressage rider Alice Hurley has achieved a place on the British Dressage Potential Championship Squad of pony riders.
Fourteen-year-old Alice and her pony Pendley Mayday won their first affiliated medium test at Addington Manor Premier League with an impressive 66.4 per cent and made an encouraging 63 per cent in their first FEI test.
During the spring, the duo will be attending squad and central training and competing at FEI level at the Premier League shows in west Wiltshire and Hartpury.
Alice, who is a recipient of a Ready, Steady, Win bursary, has also qualified for the British Under-21 Winter Championships in the medium and elementary tests which will be held in Addington at the beginning of April.
