The Perfect Setting for the Up and Coming Jumper Contenders
A talented field of young jumpers competed over the course of three days in the young jumper championships qualifier at the Silver Oak Jumper Tournament. The horse show has played host to the young jumpers for the last two years and it has proven to be a great even to give the promising young horses valuable show ring mileage in a beautiful setting.

The young jumpers ranged in age from 4 to 7 years old with the 6 year olds jumping at heights of 1.20-1.25m and 7 year olds clearing 1.30-1.35m fences – both age groups eligible for the division championships.
