RECORD entries from both Guernsey and Jersey at the Forest Farm Dressage competition, showed yet again just how popular the sport now is in the Channel Islands.

The success of local rider Carl Hester at the London Olympics has only further increased interest in this particular aspect of equestrianism.

Fortunately local riders were lucky enough to have the opportunity to meet not only gold medal winner Hester, but also teammate and individual gold medal winner Charlotte DuJardin, who both found time to join riders at Forest Farm.

Competitors were both thrilled and inspired that the Olympians found time to join them before continuing their medal celebrations.
