Jack and Phoenix Storm have performed excellently on a great many occasions but the best performance for both came at the Rodbaston British eventing 1 day event in October 2008. Jack had entered on a day ticket in the intro section and was competing against 130 other competitors including one of the Irish olympic team (albeit on a rookie horse)
Jack completed a superb dressage with a score of 27.2 - his best yet and at this level!!. He then followed this up with a clear round in the show jumping in awful conditions. Having managed to get his studs in, Jack then set off on the cross country and the accompanying picture shows his exilaration at completeing it clear. After what seemed like an age, Jack was not only winner of his group but had the overall best score from the three groups of the day.
Lets hope this is first of many and qualified Jack for regional intro championships.
