Claudia who is just 11, and her little Shetland pony Merrylegs, have been selected to ride at the prestigious Olympia International Horse Show from the 16th-22nd December 2019 in the famous Shetland Pony Grand National, raising money for The Bob Champion Cancer Trust.

This is a first for them both to race at Olympia, having only purchased Merrylegs just under a year ago. They have raced all over the country at some of the greatest events including Badminton, Burghley, Gatcombe and  Newmarket, raising money and awareness for The Bob Champion Cancer Trust.

What started as a dream when Claudia first watched the Shetland Pony Grand National racing at Olympia in 2017 is now becoming  reality down to Claudia's hardwork, determination, ambition and love for Merrylegs. Bob Champion goes to all the races where he supports all the jockeys and is a true inspiration by fighting cancer and then going onto win the Grand National on Aldaniti in 1981, before setting up The Bob Champion Cancer Trust in 1983.

We are now asking everyone for their help by donating towards The Bob Champion Cancer Trust. Please help us to race to beat cancer.
