Kitty King is crème de la crème

Aston-le-Walls (X) and (4), Northants

KITTY KING continued her blistering form with two advanced wins – topping one section by a close-to 20-penalty margin.

Kitty, who jumped double clears on all her six rides from BE100 to advanced, repeated her double success from Aston’s July fixture, where she took top honours in a brace of open intermediate (OI) sections (report, 23 July).

Her Rio Olympic ride Ceylor LAN, owned by Diana Bown, Jacqueline Owen and Samantha Wilson, achieved the best dressage across all advanced sections with a score of 20.2. The pair added 6.8 cross-country time-penalties to their first-phase total, leaving them 19.3 penalties clear of Piggy March and Brookfield Quality.
