CONGRATULATIONS TO DAVID TURNER – THE NEW FEGENTRI GENTLEMAN FLAT CHAMPION 2007

23-10-2007

David Turner was crowned FEGENTRI Flat Champion for this season at the final Gentlemen Amateur Riders raceday for the year in Baden-Baden, Germany, on Saturday. His two remaining rides for the season did not yield him enough points to overtake Jason McKeown of Ireland who was crowned FEGENTRI Jump Champion but David was a gallant runner-up for this title as well, and richly deserves his place in the GB team of delegates which will be representing the AJA when attending the General Assembly in Qatar at the end of February 2008.

Meanwhile during the same weekend, Marie King and Scott Dobson represented GB in the USA where Marie retained her place of fifth in the race for the Lady Amateur Riders FEGENTRI championship, and looks forward to their final two races of the season at the beginning of December which will be held in Mauritius.
