New starlet Victoria Colvin shines in Wellington

After 12 competitive weeks of racking up accolades at the Winter Equestrian Festival, Victoria Colvin was awarded the coveted circuit championship award as the WEF Overall Hunter Rider.
The young professional gathered 2,554 points over the course of the series to capture the title, one of only three riders to surpass the 2,000 point benchmark.
In the jumper ring, Colvin rode to victory in the Week 4 Hermes Under 25 Team Event as the only double clear with I Love Lucy. To conclude Week 6, she navigated Neil Jones Equestrian’s Clochard to an easy win in the $25,000 CP National Grand Prix ahead of 25 other competitors to ride the fastest double clear by nearly two seconds, despite the pair only being together for a few weeks.
Aboard George Morris’ Conpardie Z and Chagrand, the young phenom also proved to be an excellent trainer for young horses, as she compiled a long list of clear rides in the 1.40m classes over the course of the series.
