Pippa D Sze Soars to National Top 10 Finish!
We are thrilled to celebrate a run of outstanding achievements from Year 4 student Pippa D Sze, who delivered exceptional performances at two of Victoria's biggest events: the Boneo Cup and the Australian Jumping Championships.
Pippa D kicked off her major competitions at the Boneo Cup Melbourne. On Friday she and her horse Alfonso BMG secured an impressive 2nd place in the 80cm class, navigating a large field of 42 riders. On Saturday the pair went one better, taking home the 1st place blue ribbon in the 75-80cm Jump Off.
Following this strong showing, Pippa headed to the Australian Jumping Championships—the most prestigious event on the national showjumping calendar.
Competing against the country's best, she and her horse Bremer Park Poco Express tackled the highly competitive Ivory Series (80cm). Out of an initial field of 42 riders, only 20 qualified for the demanding final.
Pippa held her nerve, delivering a fantastic round to secure 7th place overall. This incredible result officially ranks Pippa D among the Top 10 riders in the country for her height class—an outstanding achievement for her age and a testament to her hard work and talent.
Congratulations Pippa D.
