Hopwood Hall ponies trot away with rosettes

Date published: 16 May 2016


Hopwood Hall College’s ponies trotted away with rosettes at the Rochdale Horse Show.

Staff and students from Hopwood Hall College took the College’s ponies to the show and were delighted when Teddy, a chestnut Shetland, and Coco, a dark bay, won second and third place.

Sarah Whitehurst, from the animal management department, said: “It is a great result for all the work put in, mostly by students in their own time, and the ponies were very well behaved too.

"Coco also qualified for ‘Inhand Small Breeds’ as well.”
