Team Inglis for Stonewall Maiden Teams Challenge

Tara Madgwick - Friday November 18

The inaugural TSHA National Titles at Stonewall has attracted support from a wide variety of sponsors including Inglis, who will field a team in the Maiden Teams Challenge on Saturday, but sadly their key rider and popular marketing executive Jemma Cutting has had to scratch due to injury.

Jemma is a keen rider and passionate life after racing supporter so was very much looking forward to jumping her horse Sir Gwyn at Stonewall, but a mishap last weekend at the Thoroughbred Spring Fair will unfortunately see her on the sidelines with young South Coast rider William Hodgekiss set to take her place in the team.

William Hodgekiss will fill in for Jemma Cutting for Team Inglis

William is a regular at South Coast shows and is trained by renowned coach Simon Kale enjoying great success in interschools and TSHA classes on the former Group I winner Grand Zulu.

For this class he will be riding a new horse Night Flash (Ne Coupez Pas (USA), an experienced 17yo gelding.
